Laser spectroscopy and CP-violation sensitivity of actinium monofluoride

M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, M. Au, A. Kyuberis +39

The apparent invariance of the strong nuclear force under combined charge conjugation and parity (CP) remains an open question in modern physics. Precision experiments with heavy a…
