The Nelson-Barr mechanism to solve the strong CP problem requires vector- like quarks (VLQs) to transmit the spontaneous CP breaking to the SM. We study the scenario where only these VLQs are within reach at the TeV scale while the spontaneous CP breaking sector is inaccessible. We investigate how these VLQs of Nelson-Barr type differ from generic VLQs and find from parameter counting that one less parameter is needed. In particular, for one VLQ of Nelson-Barr type, there is only one CP odd quantity that is responsible for all CP violation. In this case, we solve the technical problem of parametrizing only the new physics parameters while keeping the SM parameters as independent inputs. For one down-type VLQ, the model is largely flavor safe because the VLQ couplings to the SM up quarks and the W are hierarchically smaller for lighter quarks. (AU) | |
