  3. What is EDM? - + l Introduction Any two point charges with equal magnitude but opposite signs separated by small distance is called electric dipole. • Source of EDM is mainly,  in CKM matrix, and QCD-θs . But CPT-Violation, SUSY all can cause and may also enhance the SM-EDM.  • Source of EDM? 225Ra Fig: source google

  4. Why EDM is Interesting? • P-violation: τ-θ puzzle Parity is conserved in electro-magnetic and strong interactions but must not conserved in weak interaction. Introduction Wu et al., in 1957 observed that β-decay of 60Co preferentially emitted against the direction of the spin of it which tells that weak interactions violates parity maximally. • CP-violation: Natural kaon decay CP is marginally violated as neutral kaons oscillated to their anti-particles.

  5. Why EDM is Interesting? • CP-violation: Natural kaon decay cont.. CP violation shows that weak interactions don’t treat the matter the same as anti-matter and this would leave the abundance of matter over anti-matter. Source of CP violation comes from the SM-CKM matrix in the form of δCP . Introduction Ref. J M Pendlebury et al. Phys. Rev. D 92.9 (Nov. 2015) Maxim Pospelov and Adam Ritz. Ann. Phys. 318.1 (July 2005), • Strong CP problem dn~ θs .(6×10-17) e.cm dn< 3 × 10-26 e.cm θs < 5 × 10-10 The Smallness of the value of θs is unknown, also known as CP problem. • CPT (and Lorentz) Symmetry Quantum field theory is invariant under CPT transformation –recover the original vector after successive C, P, T transforms. Any deviation from CPT invariance is beyond the SM and will involve new physics. Hence precision test of CPT invariance is a powerful way to gain insights into aspects of possible new physics.

  6. Why EDM is Interesting? • Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) BAU is quantified as the a ratio between the density of surviving matter (nB) to photons (nγ). Introduction • Precisely measured value of  ηB in cosmic microwave background observation reported by planks telescope is [Ref. Canetti et al.] • BAU computed using the known source of CP violation in CKM-matrix [Ref. Riotto et al.]: BAU calculated using known source of CP violation is too small and there should be additional new source of CP-violations and corresponding new physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM).

  8. Attempts to measure the EDM EDM may generate from one or many CP violating mechanism. Attempts to Measure the EDM Non-zero EDM is elementary particles, subatomic composite particles , nuclei and atoms in their ground state indicates CPV. Only non-degenerate states possessing non-zero EDM violates CP Non-zero EDM of molecule does not necessarily indicate the CPV. Attempts over the last five decades at measuring a CPV EDM in many systems have resulted in stringent upper limit. Ref. Jungmann et. al., 2017 (https://journals.jps.jp/doi/10.7566/JPSCP.18.011017)

  14. Need of Octupole-Deformed Nuclei • Octupole deformed nuclei and EDM • EDM searches in different systems are complementary since they are sensitive to different linear combination of CP-violation sources. • Paramagnetic molecules and atoms: Tl, YbF, ThO, HfF+ have single unpaired electrons and are sensitive to an intrinsic electron EDM. • The contribution of electron EDM in paramagnetic system is amplified by the relativistic atomic structure of the heavy alkali-like atoms and are sensitive to nuclear spin independent CP-violating electron-nucleon interactions. • The diamagnetic atoms and molecules:   199Hg, 129Xe, 225Ra, TIF have a appearance of partially screened nucleus and are sensitive to isoscalar and isovector CP-violating interaction inside the nucleus. Diamagnetic atoms have relatively very small contributions from individual electron, proton or neutron EDM, compared to contributions from nuclear Schiff moment. • According to Schiff theorem, nuclear EDM in diamagnetic systems is almost completely screened by the surrounding electron cloud. This screening is not perfect for the heavy nuclei due to relativistic atomic structure, and contribute residual effect to the atomic EDM also called Schiff moment. [Ref. Jaideep Singh 2019, https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.03206]

  15. Need of Octupole-Deformed Nuclei • Octupole deformed nuclei and EDM Ref. Jaideep Singh 2019 • 199Hg currently sets the most stringent limits on CP-violating interactions originating from nuclear medium. • Diamagnetic atoms such as 225Ra, 221,223Rn, 229Pa have a pear-shaped (octupole-deformed) nuclei. • Octupole deformed characterized by β3has nearly degenerate parity doublets. Due to the parity-violating nucleon-nucleon interaction, the two states that make up the parity doublet mix and result in an enhanced Schiff moment.

  17. Need of Octupole-Deformed Nuclei • Octupole deformed nuclei and EDM Contribution of atomic EDM due to Schiff moment: β2 - quadrupole deformation parameter β3 - octupole deformation parameter ∆E - energy different between the parity doublets Larmor frequency of spin-1/2 particles: For the uniform magnetic field, ∆B =0, and frequency difference is directly proportional to EDM. Hence, the uncertainty in EDM is solely given by the uncertainty in frequency measurement. The difference in two frequency is: Ref.

  18. Need of Octupole-Deformed Nuclei • Octupole deformed nuclei and EDM Contribution of atomic EDM due to Schiff moment: β2 - quadrupole deformation parameter β3 - quadrupole deformation parameter ∆E - energy different between the parity doublets Which is ideally the inverse of spin precession time (τ): Nm = number of frequency different measurements Na  = total number of particles probed T = total integration time ε = experimental efficiency [Ref. Jaideep Singh 2019, https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.03206]

  20. Need of Octupole-Deformed Nuclei • Statistical Sensitivity to EDM measurement • Nuclei shorting were based on: • Nuclei with better octupole deformation than 225Ra. • Nuclei with relative quiet branches of decay (not too noisy): i.e., long halftimes. • Relatively well known magnetometry and atomic spectroscopy like Fr, Ra, Hg, Cs, TI, Y and so on. • EDM enhance were calculated based on: a Theoretical Enhancement→(β2 β32 Z3 A2∕3)/ΔE bStatistical Sensitivity→ √(Beam rates × T1∕2) cBeam Sensitivity→ √(T1∕2) dComparison of Theoritical Sensitivity w.r.t Statistical Sensitivity →Theoretical Enhancement × Statistical Sensitivity
