Weak Effective Theory Treatment of Electric Dipole Moments*

A fully generic treatment of electric dipole moments (EDMs) will be presented in the CP-violating and flavour conserving weak effective field theory (WET) with five flavours. We systematically analyze leading contributions to EDMs originating due to the QCD and/or QED renormalization group running up to two-loop level between the electroweak and low energy scale O(1GeV) as well as the threshold corrections at bottom and charm mass. This allows us to derive a master formula for various EDM observables in the space of generic WET. As an application, we interpret the EDM constraints on the CP-violating Higgs and Z-boson couplings in the scenarios with linear and non-linear realizations of electroweak symmetry breaking.
