LGRT 419B
The school is designed to provide theoretical background for EDM experimentalists. The focus will be on pedagogical lectures, informal discussions with ample time for Q&A, and simple exercises. The goal is to enable participants to obtain an up-to-date picture of the physics of EDMs, including implications for physics beyond the Standard Model and cosmology. Topics will include:
* CPV and EDMs in the Standard Model
* Beyond the Standard Model CPV and EDM implications
* Implications for baryogenesis
* The low-energy physics of EDMs: hadrons, nuclei, neutral atoms, and molecules
The primary lecturers will be Vincenzo Cirigliano (LANL) and Michael Ramsey-Musolf (UMass Amherst), with special topical guest lectures to be arranged.
