Six years after CERN’s Large Hadron Collider discovered the Higgs particle, the last missing piece of the Standard Model, many of the biggest mysteries in particle physics remain. For instance, why is gravity so dramatically weak compared to the other fundamental forces? And why does our Universe contain ordinary matter but almost none of the antimatter with opposite electric charge? To address these questions, physics beyond the Standard Model is needed. Perhaps surprisingly, very precise measurements of properties of the electron might help us reach the answer. In this talk,
I will describe the implications of a recent determination of the electron’s electric dipole moment for physics beyond the Standard Model.
