Abstract Hierarchical masses of quarks and leptons are addressed by imposing horizontal symmetries. In supersymmetric Standard Models, the same symmetries play a role in suppressing flavor violating processes induced by supersymmetric particles. Combining the idea of spontaneous CP violation to control contributions to electric dipole moments (EDMs), the mass scale of supersymmetric particles can be lowered. We present supersymmetric models with U(1) horizontal symmetries and discuss CP and flavor constraints. Models with two U(1) symmetries are found to give a viable solution to the muon g − 2 anomaly. Interestingly, the parameter space to explain the anomaly will be probed by future electron EDM experiments.

We dicuss the utility of precision probes for flavour-diagonal CP-violation, namely, searches for electric dipole moments of nucleons, atoms, and molecules, in looking for new physics thresholds that manifest themselves primarily through higher dimensional operators. After reviewing the status of the electric dipole moment (EDM) constraints, we consider first the sensitivity to a generic class of dimension-five operators generated at a supersymmetric threshold, through their contribution to CP- and flavour-violating observables. Such thresholds can be probed by EDMs up to a scale of order 108 GeV depending on the flavour structure. We then turn to consider the possibility that electroweak baryogenesis is made feasible by the introduction of dimension-six operators at a TeV-scale threshold. The EDM costraints on dimension-six couplings of the Higgs to the fermions currently still allow a reasonable window in parameter space for these models, but the next generation of experiments should provide a conclusive test.

We review the current status of the study of parity and time invariance violation in atoms, nuclei and molecules. We focus on parity nonconservation (PNC) in cesium (CS) and three of the most promising areas of research: (i) PNC in a chain of isotopes, (ii) search for nuclear anapole moments, and (iii) search for permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) of atoms and molecules, which in turn are caused by either an electron EDM or nuclear T, P-odd moments such as a nuclear EDM or nuclear Schiff moment.

We review the present status of the CP violating problem in supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. We analyze the constraints imposed by the experimental limits of the electron, neutron, and mercury electric dipole moments on the supersymmetric CP phases and show that only the scenarios with flavour-off-diagonal CP violation remain attractive. These scenarios require Hermitian Yukawa matrices which naturally arise in models with left–right symmetry or a SU(3) flavour symmetry. In this case, εK and ε′/ε can be saturated by a small non-universality of the soft scalar masses through the gluino and chargino contributions respectively. The model also predicts a strong correlation between A CP (b → sγ) and the neutron electric dipole moment. In this framework, the standard model gives a the leading contribution to the CP asymmetry in B → ψKS decay, while the dominant chargino contribution to this asymmetry is < 0.2. Thus, no constraint is set on the non-universality of this model by the recent BaBar and Belle measurements.
