The grand unified axion not observable?
It is a characteristic of grand unified theories with an axion of the type suggested by Dine, Fischler and Srednicki (1981) that they predict a very small neutron electric dipole moment because the QCD theta vacuum parameter is suppressed. The minimal SU(5) axion model of Wise, Georgi and Glashow (1...

description | It is a characteristic of grand unified theories with an axion of the type suggested by Dine, Fischler and Srednicki (1981) that they predict a very small neutron electric dipole moment because the QCD theta vacuum parameter is suppressed. The minimal SU(5) axion model of Wise, Georgi and Glashow (1981) yields a cosmological baryon-to-proton ratio in the same order as that in the minimal SU(5) model with one 5 of Higgs, which is much smaller than required by astrophysics. More complicated grand unified axion models can avoid this problem. (24 refs). |
