Measuring the size of permanent electric dipole moments (EDM) of a particle or system provides a powerful tool to test Beyond-the-Standard-Model physics. The diamagnetic $^{129}$Xe atom is one of the promising candidates for EDM experiments due to its obtainable high nuclear polarization and its long spin-coherence time in a homogeneous magnetic field. By measuring the spin precession frequencies of polarized $^{129}$Xe and $^{3}$He, a new upper limit on the $^{129}$Xe atomic EDM $d_\mathrm{A}(^{129}\mathrm{Xe})$ was reported in Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 143003 (2019). This writeup proposes a new evaluation method based on global phase fitting (GPF) for analyzing the continuous phase development of the $^{3}$He-$^{129}$Xe comagnetometer signal. The Cramer-Rao Lower Bound on the $^{129}$Xe EDM for the GPF method is theoretically derived and shows the benefit of achieving high statistical sensitivity without bringing new systematic uncertainties. The robustness of the GPF method is verified with Monte-Carlo studies. By optimizing the analysis parameters and adding few more data that could not be analyzed with the former method, a result of \[ { d_\mathrm{A} (^{129}\mathrm{Xe})=(1.1 \pm 3.6_\mathrm{(stat)} \pm 2.0_\mathrm{(syst)})\times 10 ^{-28} e~\mathrm{cm}}, \] is obtained and is used to derive the upper limit of $^{129}$Xe permanent EDM at 95\% C.L. \[ {|d_\text{A}(^{129}\text{Xe})| < 8.3 \times 10^{-28}~e~\mathrm{cm}}. \] This limit is a factor of 1.7 smaller as compared to the previous result.
Probing interactions between Rydberg atoms with large electric dipole moments in amplitude modulated electric fields
实验研究了主量子数为$n=53$的里德堡-斯塔克态氦原子间的偶极-偶极相互作用,以及由诱导电偶极矩约为7900 D引起的近似线性斯塔克能移.实验在脉冲超音速亚稳态氦束中进行,粒子数密度高达$\sim10^9$ cm $^{-3}$。在振幅调制,射频电场的存在下,已观察到的光谱强度分布的变化与过渡到这些状态,归因于偶极-偶极相互作用内的合奏激发原子。实验结果与用Floquet方法计算的里德伯能级结构非常吻合,激发最多可由4个原子共享。使用这些里德堡-斯塔克态作为传感器的非共振宽带射频电噪声进行了讨论。
Electric-field induced dipole blockade with Rydberg atoms
高分辨激光斯塔克激发超冷铯原子的np(60 < n < 85)里德堡态,有效地阻断了长程偶极-偶极相互作用的激发.偶极阻断效应被观察为里德伯激发的淬灭,取决于由外部电场诱导的偶极矩的值。最终的离子,可以匹配偶极封锁效应的影响进行了详细讨论,但排除了我们的实验条件。相互作用的里德伯原子的激发的解析和蒙特卡罗模拟与实验一致,表明最近邻的里德伯原子的主要作用。

我们建议使用铁电体(Eu,Ba)TiO $_3$陶瓷刚好高于它们的磁有序温度,用于灵敏的电子电偶极矩搜索。我们已经合成了一些这样的陶瓷与不同的Eu浓度和测量其相关的性能,这样的搜索:磁导率,磁化噪声,和铁电磁滞回线。我们的测量结果表明,与Eu $_{0.5}$ Ba $_{0.5}$ TiO $_3$的电子电偶极矩的搜索应导致一个数量级的改善电流的最佳限制。

Ultracold rare-earth magnetic atoms with an electric dipole moment
我们提出了一种新的方法来产生超冷镝原子的电和磁偶极气体。在17513.33 cm $^{-1}$和电子角动量$J=10$处,以及在17514.50 cm $^{-1}$和$J=9$处,一对具有相反宇称的近简并能级可以与外部电场混合,从而在实验室坐标系中诱导出电偶极矩。对于与当今实验相关的场振幅,我们预测磁偶极矩高达13玻尔磁子,电偶极矩高达0.22德拜,这与碱金属晶体获得的值相似。当存在磁场时,我们证明了电偶极矩强烈地依赖于磁场之间的角度。场混合能级的寿命在毫秒范围内,从而允许适当的实验检测和操纵。
