Title

Strong CP violation: from fact to fancy and back

Speaker

Prof. Goran Senjanovic (International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Italy)

Abstract

I demonstrate explicitly that there is no strong CP problem in the Standard Model—and thus there can be no solution to a non-existing problem. I go then through the most popular ‘solutions’ and show how they fare no better than the SM, but simply trade the small strong CP parameter for other ad-hoc assumed small terms. In particular, I focus on the PQ mechanism with the axion and discuss its pros and cons.
