Integration of a high finesse cryogenic build-up cavity with an ion trap

Oliver Wipfli, Henry Fernandes Passagem, Christoph Fischer +2

We report on the realization of a hemispherical optical cavity with a finesse of F = 13000 sustaining inter-cavity powers of 10 kW, which we operate in a closed-cycle cryostat vacu…

-odd effects in the LuOH cation

Daniel E. Maison, Leonid V. Skripnikov, Gleb Penyazkov +2

The LuOH cation is a promising system to search for manifestations of time reversal and spatial parity violation effects. Such effects in LuOH induced by the electron elect…

Experimental constraint on axion-like particle coupling over seven orders of magnitude in mass

Tanya S. Roussy, Daniel A. Palken, William B. Cairncross +11

We use our recent electric dipole moment (EDM) measurement data to constrain the possibility that the HfF EDM oscillates in time due to interactions with candidate dark matter…

Engineering generalized Gibbs ensembles with trapped ions

Florentin Reiter, Florian Lange, Shreyans Jain +3

The concept of generalized Gibbs ensembles (GGEs) has been introduced to describe steady states of integrable models. Recent advances show that GGEs can also be stabilized in nearl…

Precision Spectroscopy of Polarized Molecules in an Ion Trap

Huanqian Loh, Kevin C. Cossel, Matt Grau +5

Polar molecules are desirable systems for quantum simulations and cold chemistry. Molecular ions are easily trapped, but a bias electric field applied to polarize them tends to acc…
