How does the electron electric dipole moment (EDM) depend on supersymmetry?

Question

I have read a recent paper that says that limit on the EDM of the electron has now been measured to 12 times better accuracy. According to that paper, as I understood, there should be a difference in the measured value of the EDM depending on whether or not supersymmetry exists. What is the reason behind that? calculations are always my preference.

This note discusses the general form of contributions to the EDM, at tree, one and two-loop level.
