Theory of Electric Dipole Moments of Atoms and

Molecules

Outline of the talk

➢ General features of EDMs and relationship to the Standard Model

➢ Relationship between the electron EDM and atomic and molecular EDMs.

➢ Need for a relativistic many-body theory of atomic and molecular EDMs

➢ Future improvements in atomic and molecular theory of EDMs

Permanent EDM of a particle VIOLATES both P - & T – invariance.

T-violation implies CP-violation via CPT theorem.

⟨ ∣ D ∣ ⟩ = c ⟨ ∣ J ∣ ⟩

⇒ D = 0

EDM and Degeneracy :

D = ⟨∣e r∣ ⟩ ≠ 0

Consider the degeneracy of opposite parity states in a physical system

∣ ⟩ = a ∣e⟩ b ∣

EDM can be nonzero for degenerate states.

P and T violations in non-degenerate systems implies nonzero EDM.

The effective electric field in certain molecules interacting with the electron EDM can be several orders of magnitude larger than those in atoms. It can be expressed as

Some of the current molecular EDM experiments that are underway are :

The sensitivities of these experiments could be 2-3 orders of magnitude better than that of the best electron EDM limit from atomic Tl.

Calculations of the effective fields in molecules are currently in their infancy.

Conclusions

Atomic and molecular EDMs arising the electron EDM could serve as excellent probes of physics beyond the standard model and shed lighton CP violation.

Relativistic many-body theory plays a crucial role in determining an upper limit for the electron EDM

The current best electron EDM limits come from Tl and YbF

Several Atomic ( Rb, Cs, Fr, etc. ) and Molecular ( YbF, HfF+, ThO, etc ) EDM experiments are underway. Results of some of these experiments could in combination with relativistic many-body calculations improve the limit for the electron EDM.
