[[abstract]]The authors derive an identity that relates the fermion electric dipole moment from weak CP-violation effects to the strong CP parameter &thetas;. In the absence of Peccei-Quinn-type symmetries, they find that requiring &thetas; naturally small generally implies that, for a large class of models, the dominant contribution to the neutron electric dipole moment dn comes from strong CP violation rather than directly from weak CP-violation effects[[fileno]]2010129010018[[department]]物理
