The electric dipole moment (EDM) is an excellent probe of new physics beyond the standard model of particle physics. The EDM of light nuclei is particularly interesting due to the high sensitivity to the hadron level CP violation. In this proceedings contribution, we investigate the mechanism of the generation of the EDM for several light nuclei and the prospect for the discovery of new physics.

We calculate the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the nuclei $^7$Li and $^{11}$B in the cluster model with $alpha$ ($^4$He) and triton ($^3$H) clusters as degrees of freedom. The $^7$Li and $^{11}$B nuclei are treated in the two- and three-body proble m, respectively, using the Gaussian expansion method, assuming the one-meson exchange P, CP-odd nuclear forces. We find that $^7$Li and $^{11}$B have larger sensitivity to the CP violation than the deuteron. It is also suggested that the EDMs of $^7$Li and $^{11}$B, together with those of $^6$Li, $^9$Be and the $1/2^+_1$ excited state of $^{13}$C, obey an approximate counting rule accounting for the EDM of the cluster and the $alpha -N $ polarization. We show their sensitivity on the hadronic level CP violation in terms of the chiral effective field theory, and discuss their role in probing new physics beyond the standard model.
Nuclear electric dipole moments of $^{3}He$ and $^{3}H$ are calculated using Time Reversal Invariance Violating (TRIV) potentials based on the meson exchange theory, as well as the ones derived by using pionless and pionful effective field theories, with nuclear wave functions obtained by solving Faddeev equations in configuration space for the complete Hamiltonians comprising both TRIV and realistic strong interactions. The obtained results are compared with the previous calculations of $^{3}He$ EDM and with time reversal invariance violating effects in neutron-deuteron scattering.
The determination of nuclear symmetry energy, and in particular, its density dependence, is a long-standing problem for nuclear physics community. Previous studies have found that the product of electric dipole polarizability $alpha_D$ and symmetry e nergy at saturation density $J$ has a strong linear correlation with $L$, the slope parameter of symmetry energy. However, current uncertainty of $J$ hinders the precise constraint on $L$. We investigate the correlations between electric dipole polarizability $alpha_D$ (or times symmetry energy at saturation density $J$) in Sn isotopes and the slope parameter of symmetry energy $L$ using the quasiparticle random-phase approximation based on Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov. A strong and model-independent linear correlation between $alpha_D$ and $L$ is found in neutron-rich Sn isotopes where pygmy dipole resonance (PDR) gives a considerable contribution to $alpha_D$, attributed to the pairing correlations playing important roles through PDR. This newly discovered linear correlation would help one to constrain $L$ and neutron-skin thickness $Delta R_textnormal{np}$ stiffly if $alpha_D$ is measured with high resolution in neutron-rich nuclei. Besides, a linear correlation between $alpha_D J$ in a nucleus around $beta$-stability line and $alpha_D$ in a neutron-rich nucleus can be used to assess $alpha_D$ in neutron-rich nuclei.

We study double gamma ($gammagamma$) decay nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) for a wide range of nuclei from titanium to xenon, and explore their relation to neutrinoless double-beta ($0 ubetabeta$) NMEs. To favor the comparison, we focus on double-magn etic dipole transitions in the final $betabeta$ nuclei, in particular the $gammagamma$ decay of the double isobaric analog of the initial $betabeta$ state into the ground state. For the most probable decay with equal-energy photons, our large-scale nuclear shell model results show a good linear correlation between the $gammagamma$ and $0 ubetabeta$ NMEs. Our analysis reveals that the correlation holds for $gammagamma$ transitions driven by the spin or orbital angular momentum due to the dominance of zero-coupled nucleon pairs, a feature common to $0 ubetabeta$ decay. Our findings point out the potential of future $gammagamma$ decay measurements to constrain $0 ubetabeta$ NMEs, which are key to answer fundamental physics questions based on $0 ubetabeta$ experiments.
Until this day no electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) has been observed. Why it is so vanishing small, escaping detection in the last 50 years, is not easy to explain. In general it is considered as the most sensitive probe for the violation of the combined symmetry of charge and parity (CP). A discovery could shed light on the poorly understood matter/anti-matter asymmetry of the universe. As nucleon it might one day help to distinguish different sources of CP-violation in combination with measurements of the electron and diamagnetic EDMs. This proceedings articles presents an overview of the most important concepts in searches for an nEDM and presents a brief overview of the world wide efforts.
