    Enhancement of the electric dipole moment of the electron in PbO

    Full text link
    The a(1) state of PbO can be used to measure the electric dipole moment of the electron d_e. We discuss a semiempirical model for this state, which yields an estimate of the effective electric field on the valence electrons in PbO. Our final result is an upper limit on the measurable energy shift, which is significantly larger than was anticipated earlier: 2Wdde2.4×1025Hz[deecm] 2|W_d|d_e \ge 2.4\times 10^{25} \textrm{Hz} [ \frac{d_e}{e \textrm{cm}} ].Comment: 4 pages, revtex4, no figures, submitted to PR

    Shifts of semi-invariants and complete commutative subalgebras in polynomial Poisson algebras

    Full text link
    We study commutative subalgebras in the symmetric algebra S(g)S(\mathfrak{g}) of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g}. A. M. Izosimov introduced extended Mischenko-Fomenko subalgebras F~a\tilde{\mathcal{F}}_a and gave a completeness criterion for them. We generalize his construction and extend Mischenko-Fomenko subalgebras with the shifts of all semi-invariants of g\mathfrak{g}. We prove that the new commutative subalgebras have the same transcendence degree as F~a\tilde{\mathcal{F}}_a

    Electric dipole moment of the electron in YbF molecule

    Full text link
    Ab initio calculation of the hyperfine, P-odd, and P,T-odd constants for the YbF molecule was performed with the help of the recently developed technique, which allows to take into account correlations and polarization in the outercore region. The ground state electronic wave function of the YbF molecule is found with the help of the Relativistic Effective Core Potential method followed by the restoration of molecular four-component spinors in the core region of ytterbium in the framework of a non-variational procedure. Core polarization effects are included with the help of the atomic Many Body Perturbation Theory for Yb atom. For the isotropic hyperfine constant A, accuracy of our calculation is about 3% as compared to the experimental datum. The dipole constant Ad (which is much smaller in magnitude), though better than in all previous calculations, is still underestimated by almost 23%. Being corrected within a semiempirical approach for a perturbation of 4f-shell in the core of Yb due to the bond making, this error is reduced to 8%. Our value for the effective electric field on the unpaired electron is 4.9 a.u.=2.5E+10 V/cm.Comment: 7 pages, REVTE

    Enhancement of the electric dipole moment of the electron in the YbF molecule

    Full text link
    We calculate an effective electric field on the unpaired electron in the YbF molecule. This field determines sensitivity of the molecular experiment to the electric dipole moment of the electron. We use experimental value of the spin-doubling constant to estimate the admixture of the configuration with the hole in the 4f-shell of Ytterbium to the ground state of the molecule. This admixture reduces the field by 7%. Our value for the effictive field is 5.1 a.u. = 2.5 10^{10} V/cm.Comment: 5 pages, LATEX, uses revtex.st

    The Bose-Einstein correlation function C2(Q)C_2(Q) from a Quantum Field Theory point of view

    Full text link
    We show that a recently proposed derivation of Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) by means of a specific version of thermal Quantum Field Theory (QFT), supplemented by operator-field evolution of the Langevin type, allows for a deeper understanding of the possible coherent behaviour of the emitting source and a clear identification of the origin of the observed shape of the BEC function C2(Q)C_2(Q). Previous conjectures in this matter obtained by other approaches are confirmed and have received complementary explanation.Comment: Some misprints corrected. To be publishe in Phys. Rev.

    On search for new Higgs physics in CDF at the Tevatron

    We discuss the Higgs boson mass sum rules in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model in order to estimate the upper limits on the masses of stop quarks as well as the lower bounds on the masses of the scalar Higgs boson state. The bounds on the scale of quark-lepton compositeness derived from the CDF Collaboration (Fermilab Tevatron) data and applied to new extra gauge boson search is taken into account. These extra gauge bosons are considered in the framework of the extended SU(2)_h \times SU(2)_l model. In addition, we discuss the physics of rare decays of the MSSM Higgs bosons in both CP-even and CP-odd sectors and also some extra gauge bosons.Comment: 24 pages, LaTeX, 8 figure
