Abstract
The neutron electric dipole moment ( D n) generated by strong CP violation is due to the anomaly plus non-perturbative U (1) effects. It should vanish in quark models, which do not incorporate these two ingredients. Calculations are presented showing how this necessary cancellation does occur in a Lorentz vector potential model, but not in a scalar potential or in a bag model; in the latter cases, it is argued that the non-zero result is a model artefact. In old perturbation theory, the cancellation when present occurs between pair and 1 2 − intermediate state contributions.
