DeMille ( Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, State University of New York at Stony Brook, NY, U.S.A., Dept. of Physics, University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Dept. of Physics, University of Maryland, Co | Abstract: | Weak interactions within a nucleus generate a nuclear spin dependent parity violating electromagnetic moment; the anapole moment. In heavy nuclei, the anapole moment is the dominant contribution to spin-dependent atomic parity violation. We analyze a method to measure the nuclear anapole moment through the electric dipole transition it induces between hyperfine states of the ground level. The method requires tight confinement of the atoms to position them at the anti-node of a standing wave driving the anapole-induced E1 transiton. We explore the necessary limits in the number of atoms, excitation fields, trap type, interrogation method, and systematic tests necessary for such measurements in francium, the heaviest alkali. | Source: | arXiv, physics/0412124 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
