CP Nonconservation without Elementary Scalar Fields

Abstract

Dynamically broken gauge theories of electroweak interactions provide a natural mechanism for generating CP nonconservation. Even if all vacuum angles are unobservable, strong CP nonconservation is not automatically avoided. In the absence of strong CP nonconservation, the neutron electric dipole moment is expected to be of order 10^-24e·cm.
