Searches for new sources of CP violation using molecules as quantum sensors

N. R. Hutzler, A. Borschevsky, D. Budker +12

We discuss how molecule-based searches offer complementary probes to study the violation of fundamental symmetries. These experiments have the potential to probe not only the elect…

Isotope Shifts in the 7s8s Transition of Francium: Measurements and Comparison to \textit{ab initio} Theory

M. R. Kalita, J. A. Behr, A. Gorelov +10

We observe the electric-dipole forbidden transition in the francium isotopes Fr and Fr using a two-photon excitation scheme. We collect the at…

Hyperfine anomalies in Fr: boundaries of the spherical single particle model

J. Zhang, M. Tandecki. R. Collister, S. Aubin +6

We have measured the hyperfine splitting of the state at the 100 ppm level in Fr isotopes (Fr) near the closed neutron shell ( = 126…

Offline trapping of Fr in a magneto-optical trap from implantation of an Ac ion beam

M. Tandecki, J. Zhang, S. Aubin +10

We demonstrate a new technique to prepare an offline source of francium for trapping in a magneto-optical trap. Implanting a radioactive beam of Ac, da…

Commissioning of the Francium Trapping Facility at TRIUMF

M. Tandecki, J. Zhang, R. Collister +6

We report on the successful commissioning of the Francium Trapping Facility at TRIUMF. Large laser-cooled samples of francium are produced from a francium ion beam delivered by the…

Sensitivity test of a blue-detuned dipole trap designed for parity non-conservation measurements in Fr

Dong Sheng, Jiehang Zhang, Luis A. Orozco

A dynamic blue-detuned optical dipole trap with stable atoms produces a differential ac Stark shift of 18 Hz in the ground state hyperfine transition, and it preserves th…
