Determination of diffusion coefficients of mercury atoms in various gases from longitudinal spin relaxation in magnetic gradients

B. Clément, M. Guigue, A. Leredde +4

We present a method to measure the binary diffusion coefficient of mercury atoms in a gas at room temperature and low pressure. It is based on the measurement of the longitudinal s…

Optically Pumped Cs Magnetometers Enabling a High-Sensitivity Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment

C. Abel, S. Afach, N. J. Ayres +57

An array of sixteen laser-pumped scalar Cs magnetometers was part of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) experiment taking data at the Paul Scherrer Institute in 2015 and 201…

A highly stable atomic vector magnetometer based on free spin precession

S. Afach, G. Ban, G. Bison +31

We present a magnetometer based on optically pumped Cs atoms that measures the magnitude and direction of a 1 T magnetic field. Multiple circularly polarized laser beams were us…

Measurement of a false electric dipole moment signal from Hg atoms exposed to an inhomogeneous magnetic field

S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +46

We report on the measurement of a Larmor frequency shift proportional to the electric-field strength for atoms contained in a volume permeated with aligned magneti…

Testing isotropy of the universe using the Ramsey resonance technique on ultracold neutron spins

I. Altarev, G. Ban, G. Bison +38

Physics at the Planck scale could be revealed by looking for tiny violations of fundamental symmetries in low energy experiments. In 2008, a sensitive test of the isotropy of the U…
