The electric dipole moment of the neutron in the Skyrme model

Description

We use the Skyrme model to estimate the contribution of the QCD θ-angle to the neutron's electric dipole moment Dn, and find Dn=2x10-6 θ e cm. The same method may also be used to estimate the contributions to Dn of higher-dimension CP-violating operators. (orig.)
