Towards the electron EDM search: Theoretical study of HfF+
We report first ab initio relativistic correlation calculations of potential
curves for ten low-lying electronic states, effective electric field on the
electron and hyperfine constants for the ^3\Delta_1 state of cation of a heavy
transition metal fluoride, HfF^+, that is suggested to be used as the working
state in experiments to search for the electric dipole moment of the electron.
It is shown that HfF^+ has deeply bound ^1\Sigma^+ ground state, its
dissociation energy is D_e=6.4 eV. The ^3\Delta_1 state is obtained to be the
relatively long-lived first excited state lying about 0.2 eV higher. The
calculated effective electric field E_eff=W_d|\Omega| acting on an electron in
this state is 5.84*10^{24}Hz/(e*cm)Comment: 4 page
Configuration interaction calculation of hyperfine and P,T-odd constants on ^{207}PbO excited states for the electron EDM experiments
We report first configuration interaction calculations of hyperfine constants
A_\parallel and the effective electric field W_d acting on the electric dipole
moment of the electron, in two excited electronic states of ^{207}PbO. The
obtained hyperfine constants, A_\parallel = -3826 MHz for the a(1) state and
A_\parallel = 4887 MHz for the B(1) state, are in very good agreement with the
experimental data, -4113 MHz and 5000 \pm 200 MHz, respectively. We find W_d =
-(6.1 ^{+1.8}_{-0.6}) 10^{24} Hz/(e cm) for a(1), and W_d = (8.0 \pm 1.6)
10^{24} Hz/(e cm) for B(1). The obtained values are analyzed and compared to
recent relativistic coupled cluster results and a semiempirical estimate of W_d
for the a(1) state.Comment: 6 pages, REVTeX4 style, submitted to Pthys.Rev.
Spectroscopy of He, quasi-free scattering He+He
International audienceLow lying states of the unbound He system were investigated by means of the (d,p) reaction. A cryogenic deuterium target was bombarded by a secondary He beam. Complete kinematics measurements were accomplished. The observed He states are broad and overlapping. Their spins and parities have been unambiguously determined. Data from a He(,2)2n experiment have been analyzed in terms of a quasi-free scattering approach. A large effect of the 2n final state interaction on the internal He momentum distribution has been demonstrated
