Abstract
The supersymmetric standard model contains a new
CP-violating phase in the mass matrices for charginos and
neutralinos, which could induce CP-odd anomalous
couplings for the WWZ and vertices at the one-loop level.
We study these couplings,
paying attention to the model-parameter and q2 dependencies.
It is shown that the CP-odd form factors could have values
of order 10-3-10-4, which
are much larger than those predicted by the standard model.
We also discuss the possibility of examining these form
factors in experiments.
