Limits on CP-violating hadronic interactions and proton EDM from paramagnetic molecules
Limits on CP-violating hadronic interactions and proton EDM from paramagnetic molecules
Experiments with paramagnetic ground or metastable excited states of molecules (ThO, HfF$^+$, YbF, YbOH, BaF, PbO, etc.) provide strong constraints on electron electric dipole moment (EDM) and coupling constant $C_{SP}$ of contact semileptonic interaction. We compute new contributions to $C_{SP}$ arising from the nucleon EDMs due to combined electric and …
