An improved limit on electric dipole moment

S. -Z. Wang, S. -B. Wang, E. F. Zhou +4

Searches for permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) probe new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model. The atomic EDM of , which is sensitive to its nu…

Ab initio mapping of the boundary of the island of inversion

E. F. Zhou, C. R. Ding, Q. Y. Luo +2

Starting from a chiral two- plus three-nucleon interaction, we perform a systematic study of the low-lying states of neutron-rich nuclei around using the in-medium generator…

Microscopic study of low-lying states in odd-mass nuclei for atomic electric dipole moment searches

E. F. Zhou, J. M. Yao

We present a microscopic study of the low-lying states of five odd-mass nuclei of particular interest for experimental searches of atomic electric dipole moments (EDMs): Xe…

Impact of shape fluctuations on nuclear Schiff moments in heavy octupole-deformed nuclei

E. F. Zhou, J. M. Yao, J. Engel +1

Permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) are among the most sensitive probes of CP violation beyond the Standard Model. In diamagnetic atoms, the EDM is determined primarily by the…

Ab initio nuclear shape coexistence and emergence of island of inversion around

E. F. Zhou, C. R. Ding, J. M. Yao +4

We extend a nuclear ab initio framework based on chiral two- and three-nucleon interactions to investigate shape coexistence and the degradation of the magic number in both…

Benchmarking rotational correction energies in odd-mass nuclei

Y. Li, E. F. Zhou, J. M. Yao

Nuclear energy density functional theory (DFT) provides a microscopic approach to describing nuclear masses. By incorporating pairing correlations and deformation within DFT, nucle…

Multireference covariant density-functional theory for the low-lying states of odd-mass nuclei

E. F. Zhou, X. Y. Wu, J. M. Yao

We extend multireference covariant density-functional theory (MR-CDFT) based on a relativistic point-coupling energy functional to describe the low-lying states of odd-mass nuclei.…

Generator coordinate method for nuclear octupole excitations: status and perspectives

E. F. Zhou, J. M. Yao

Strong octupole correlations have been observed in the low-lying states of atomic nuclei across various mass regions. In this review, we provide an overview of Beyond Mean-Field (B…

Magnon-magnon interactions induced by spin pumping-driven symmetry breaking in synthetic antiferromagnets

Mitra Mani Subedi, Kuangyin Deng, Yuzan Xiong +9

The richness in both the dispersion and energy of antiferromagnetic magnons has spurred the magnetism community to consider antiferromagnets for future spintronic/magnonic applicat…

Anatomy of molecular structures in Ne

E. F. Zhou, J. M. Yao, Z. P. Li +2

We present a beyond mean-field study of clusters and molecular structures in low-spin states of Ne with a multireference relativistic energy density functional, where the dy…

Beyond relativistic mean-field approach for nuclear octupole excitations

J. M. Yao, E. F. Zhou, Z. P. Li

We report the first beyond-mean-field study of low-lying parity-doublet states in 224Ra by extending the multireference relativistic energy density functional method to include dyn…
