Electric dipole moments in the limit of heavy superpartners.
Supersymmetric loop corrections induce potentially large CP-violating couplings of the Higgs bosons to nucleons and electrons that do not vanish in the limit of heavy superpartners. The Higgs-mediated CP-odd four-fermion operators are enhanced by tan((3)beta and induce electric dipole moments of heavy atoms which exceed the current experimental bounds for the electroweak scale Higgs masses and tan(beta greater, similar 10. If only the first two sfermion generations are heavy, the Higgs-mediated contributions typically dominate over the Barr-Zee type two-loop diagrams at tan(beta>30.

Heterotic string backgrounds and CP violation
Abstract In the framework of Z N orbifolds, we discuss effects of heterotic string backgrounds including discrete Wilson lines on the Yukawa matrices and their connection to CP violation.

The CKM phase in heterotic orbifold models
Abstract We consider properties of the CKM phase in the heterotic orbifold models. We find that at the renormalizable level the CKM phase vanishes identically for the prime orbifolds, whereas it can be nonzero for some nonprime orbifolds. In particular, we study in detail the Z 6 -I orbifold which allows for a nontrivial CKM phase and analyze the modular properties of the corresponding Jarlskog invariant. The CKM phase is shown to vanish if the moduli fields are stabilized at Im T i =±1/2.

Chargino Contributions to Epsilon and Epsilon-Prime
We analyze the chargino contributions to the K-\bar K mixing and epsilon-prime in the mass insertion approximation and derive the corresponding bounds on the mass insertion parameters. We find that the chargino contributions can significantly enlarge the regions of the parameter space where CP violation can be fully supersymmetric. In principle, the observed values of epsilon and epsilon-prime may be entirely due to the chargino -- up-squark loops.

Universal torsion-induced interaction from large extra dimensions
We consider the Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario in which only gravity exists in the bulk. Without the assumption of symmetric connection, the presence of brane fermions induces torsion. The result is a universal axial contact interaction that dominates those induced by KK gravitons. This enhancement arises from a large spin density on the brane. Using a global fit to Z-pole observables, we find the 3sigma bound on the scale of quantum gravity to be 28 TeV for n = 2. If Dirac or light sterile neutrinos are present, the data from SN1987A increase the bound to sqrt[n] M(S)>/=210 TeV.

Supersymmetric Jarlskog invariants: The neutrino sector
We generalize the notion of the Jarlskog invariant to supersymmetric models with right-handed neutrinos. This allows us to formulate basis-independent necessary and sufficient conditions for $CP$ conservation in such models.

Experimental investigation of stochastic slow extraction from the U-70 synchrotron
The feasibility of developing a system for stochastic (noise) slow extraction from the U-70 proton synchrotron of the Institute for High Energy Physics is substantiated, and the results from its experimental testing are presented. The existing auxiliary 200-MHz RF system (accelerating frequency, 5.5–6 MHz) is used as a longitudinal kicker. This system is driven by the superposition of a deterministic (nonrandom) RF carrier and additive phase noise. The noise gives rise to longitudinal beam diffusion that forces protons into the third-order transverse extraction resonance. The technical constraints inherent in the U-70 machine are taken into account in the proposed scheme. The extraction technique is expected to provide flat-topped spills having a duration of a few seconds and a low contamination with ripple.

Coasting Beam in HERA-p Ring
This document is a report on stud ies of production/tr ansport mechanisms resulting in and of cures against a coasting beam halo observed at the HERA proton ring of DESY. Noises in the 208 MHz RF system, drift beyond RF buckets due to energy loss through synchrotron radiation of the highenergy protons and effect of adding the 52 MHz RF voltage are claimed to account for the diverse observations over the halation effect available by now. The work was performed under Attachment #63 to the Agreement between DESY (Hamburg, Germany) and IHEP (Protvino, Russia), re: Coasting Beam in HERA-p Ring, June 2000.
