A large Muon Electric Dipole Moment from Flavor?

Abstract

We study the prospects and opportunities of a large muon electric dipole moment (EDM) of the order (10-24 - 10-22) ecm. We investigate how natural such a value is within the general minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with CP violation from lepton flavor violation in view of the experimental constraints. In models with hybrid gauge-gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking a large muon EDM is indicative for the structure of flavor breaking at the Planck scale, and points towards a high messenger scale.
