In this paper we investigate the freely propagating fields behind the results in [6]. In [6] we calculated the magnetic dipole moment of the muon and the electric dipole moments of the muon, electron and the neutron (in a simple quark model) to first order in loop corrections in both S1 and S1 \backslash \boldsymbolZ2. In these calculations in [6] we investigated the effect of fields possibly generated by higher dimensional superconducting cosmic strings [4] that interact with the charged fields on the manifold. In comparing the results in [6] with standard model precision tests for the electric and magnetic dipole moments of the various fermions in the model, we were able to obtain upper limits on the compactification size as well as an upper limit for the new b parameter. Recall that in [5] we presented the theory for [6] in M4 \bigotimes S1 \backslash \boldsymbolZ2 where, in [6], we allowed for external magnetic fields, that could be produced by light charged particles traveling near superconducting cosmic strings, to permeate the extra dimensional space. These fields affected the charged particles in the model resulting in a novel mechanism for parity violation in QED processes along with other phenomenological and theoretical implications [6].
