Large Tau and Tau Neutrino Electric Dipole Moments in Models with Vector Like Multiplets

Abstract

It is shown that the electric dipole moment of the tau lepton several orders of magnitude larger than predicted by the standard model can be generated from mixings in models with vector like mutiplets. The EDM of the tau lepton arises from loops involving the exchange of the W, the charginos, the neutralinos, the sleptons, the mirror leptons, and the mirror sleptons. The EDM of the Dirac tau neutrino is also computed from loops involving the exhange of the W, the charginos, the mirror leptons and mirror sleptons. A numerical analysis is presented and it is shown that the EDMs of the tau lepton and of the tau neutrino which lie just a couple of orders of magnitude below the sensitivity of the current experiment can be achieved. Thus the predictions of the model are testable in improved experiment on the EDM of the tau and of the tau neutrino.
