  10. CP Violation in Particle Physics Discrete symmetries in particle physics C – Charge conjugation, transforms particles to antiparticles violated by weak interactions P – Parity, changes left-handedness to right-handedness violated by weak interactions T – Time reversal, changes direction of motion (forward to backward) CPT – exactly conserved in quantum field theory CP – conserved by all gauge interactions violated by three-flavor quark mixing matrix • All measured CP-violating effects derive • from a single phase in the quark mass matrix • (Kobayashi-Maskawa phase), • i.e. from complex Yukawa couplings • Cosmic matter-antimatter asymmetry • requires new ingredients M. Kobayashi T. Maskawa Physics Nobel Prize 2008

  11. The CP Problem of Strong Interactions Phase from Yukawa coupling Angle variable CP-odd quantity Real quark mass Remove phase of mass term by chiral transformation of quark fields • can be traded between quark phases and term • No physical impact if at least one • Induces a large neutron electric dipole moment (a T-violating quantity) Experimental limits: Why so small?

  12. Neutron Electric Dipole Moment Violates time reversal (T) and space reflection (P) symmetries Natural scale Experimental limit Limit on coefficient

  13. Strong CP Problem QCD vacuum energy Equivalent Equivalent • CP conserving vacuum has (Vafa and Witten 1984) • QCD could have any , is “constant of nature” • Energy can not be minimized: not dynamical Peccei-Quinn solution: Make dynamical, let system relax to lowest energy

  18. Axions as Cold Dark Matter of the Universe Dark Energy ~70% (Cosmological Constant) Neutrinos 0.1-2% Ordinary Matter ~5% (of this only about 10% luminous) Dark Matter ~25%

  19. Creation of Cosmological Axions (very early universe) • UPQ(1) spontaneously broken • Higgs field settles in • “Mexican hat” • Axion field sits fixed at (eV) • Axion mass turns on quickly • by thermal instanton gas • Field starts oscillating when • Classical field oscillations • (axions at rest) Axions are born as nonrelativistic, classical field oscillations Very small mass, yet cold dark matter

  21. Killing Two Birds With One Stone • Peccei-Quinn mechanism • Solves strong CP problem • Provides dark matter • in the form of axions

  22. Cosmic Axion Density Modern values for QCD parameters and temperature-dependent axion mass imply (Bae, Huh & Kim, arXiv:0806.0497) If axions provide the cold dark matter: • implies GeV and meV (“classic window”) • GeV (GUT scale) or larger (string inspired) requires (“anthropic window”)

  23. Axion Production by Domain Wall and String Decay Recent numerical studies of collapse of string-domain wall system Implies a CDM axion mass of Hiramatsu, Kawasaki, Saikawa& Sekiguchi, arXiv:1202.5851 (2012) Remains to be confirmed, interpretation of numerical studies not entirely straightforward

  24. BEC Formation ~100 citations • Axions ~ WIMP dark matter on scales axion Compton wavelength? • Larger-range correlation established by BEC dynamics? (Observable?) • Axions born as classical field oscillations → Issue of classical field dynamics (not a quantum effect) • BEC formation caused by gravitational interactions possible ???
