Description

We estimate the CP-violating WWγ and WWZ anomalous form factors, arising from CP-violating interactions in extended technicolor theories, and discuss their future experimental detectability. The electric dipole moment of the W boson is found to be as large as ∼10-21 e cm. We connect the CP-odd WWγ and WWZ couplings to the corresponding CP-violating electroweak chiral Lagrangian operators. The electric dipole moments of the neutron and the electron in technicolor theories are estimated to be as large as ∼10-26 and ∼10-29 cm, respectively. We also suggest the potential to observe large CP-violating technicolor effects in the decay t→b+W+
