Physics beyond colliders at CERN: beyond the Standard Model working group report
2019
The Physics Beyond Colliders initiative is an exploratory study aimed at exploiting the full scientific potential of the CERN's accelerator complex and scientific infrastructures through projects complementary to the LHC and other possible future colliders. These projects will target fundamental physics questions in modern particle physics. This document presents the status of the proposals presented in the framework of the Beyond Standard Model physics working group, and explore their physics reach and the impact that CERN could have in the next 10–20 years on the international landscape.
Electronic structure of the ytterbium monohydroxide molecule to search for axionlike particles
2021
Recently, the YbOH molecule has been suggested as a candidate to search for the electron electric dipole moment (eEDM), which violates spatial parity ($P$) and time-reversal ($T$) symmetries [I. Kozyryev and N. R. Hutzler, Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 133002 (2017)]. In the present paper, we show that the same system can be used to measure coupling constants of the interaction of electrons and nucleus mediated by axionlike particles. The electron-nucleus interaction produced by the axion exchange can contribute to a $T,P$-violating EDM of the whole molecular system. We express the corresponding $T,P$-violating energy shift produced by this effect in terms of the axion mass and product of the axion…
QCD and Strongly Coupled Gauge Theories: Challenges and Perspectives
2014
We dedicate this document to the memory of Mikhail Polikarpov, who passed away in July 2013. Misha worked with us for decades as a convener of the “Confinement” section of the Quark Confinement and Hadron Spectrum Series. He guided and expanded the scientific discussion of that topic, inspiring and under taking new research avenues. From its initial conception, he supported the enterprise of this document and organized Sect. 8, writing the part on confinement himself. He attracted the XIth Conference on Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum to St. Petersburg (September 8-12, 2014; see http://phys.spbu.ru/confxi.html). His warm and kind personality, his high sense of humor, his ideas in …
Measurement of the Permanent Electric Dipole Moment of the $^{129}$Xe Atom
2019
We report on a measurement of the $CP$-violating permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutral $^{129}\mathrm{Xe}$ atom. Our experimental approach is based on the detection of the free precession of co-located nuclear spin-polarized $^{3}\mathrm{He}$ and $^{129}\mathrm{Xe}$ samples. The EDM measurement sensitivity benefits strongly from long spin coherence times of several hours achieved in diluted gases and homogeneous weak magnetic fields of about 400 nT. A finite EDM is indicated by a change in the precession frequency, as an electric field is periodically reversed with respect to the magnetic guiding field. Our result $(\ensuremath{-}4.7\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}6.4)\ifmmode\t…
Coupled stochastic dynamics of magnetic moment and anisotropy axis of a magnetic nanoparticle
2012
An algorithm is developed for numerical simulation of coupled stochastic dynamics of magnetic moment and magnetic anisotropy axis of a nanoparticle. Time-correlation functions of the magnetic moment and its components longitudinal and transverse to the magnetic anisotropy axis are calculated by averaging along the stochastic trajectory. The longitudinal and transverse relaxation times are found by fitting the time correlation functions. Existing theoretical relations derived by the effective field approach in the limit of small fields are confirmed. The time-correlation functions of magnetic moments of nanoparticles in dependence on their properties are calculated numerically for arbitrary …
Plasmon damping depends on the chemical nature of the nanoparticle interface
2019
Damping of gold nanorod plasmons by surface-adsorbed molecules is best explained by scattering off adsorbate-induced dipoles.
Specific orientation of dipole moments in azocrown cetocyanine dyes determined by electrooptical absorption measurements (EOAM)
2019
Abstract From electrooptical absorption measurements (EOAM) follows that the dipole moments of azacrown ketocyanine dyes 2,5-di{(E)-1-[4-(4,7,10,13-tetraoxa-1-azacyclopentadecyl)phenyl]methylidene}-1-cyclopentanone (Compound 1) and (E)-1-(2-hydroxy-4methoxyphenyl)-3-[4-(4,7,10,13-tetraoxa-1-azacyclopentadecyl)phenyl]-2-propen-1-one (Compound 2) in the equilibrium ground state μg and the change of dipole moments upon transition to the excited Franck–Condon state Δaμ are large. This alteration causes a significant long-wavelength shift of the absorption and emission spectra, as well as large fluorescence Stokes shift with increasing polarity of the solvent. From the DFT calculations follows t…
Measurement of the transition dipole moment of silane 28SiH4 by diode laser spectroscopy
1992
Abstract A tunable diode laser IR spectrometer which is being used in various molecular spectroscopy experiments is described. Absorption spectra observed in the ( ν 1 , ν 3 ) dyad of silane 28 SiH 4 yield estimates of two parameters of the dipole moment operator responsible for absorbance in this region.
Radiation Defects in LiBaF3 Perovskites
2000
We investigated the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), recombination afterglow, thermostimulated luminescence (TSL) and absorption of LiBaF3 perovskites crystals X-irradiated at 80 K The self-trapped hole centre VK(F2-) oriented along the [110] axis and electron F type (FA) centres are identified. X-irradiation at temperatures below 200 K results in creation of a long-term temperature-independent afterglow-tunnelling luminescence (TL), with main emission bands at 300, 370 nm and 430 nm. The short wavelength TL bands are associated with the tunnelling recombination of the F type centre with the VK centre. The thermal stability of VK centre is estimated to be about 130 K.
Dynamics of surface of lipid membranes: theoretical considerations and the ESR experiment.
2016
The effect of the surface layer of model membranes on their physical properties was discussed in this paper. The research involved a physical ESR experiment with the use of spin probes and computer simulation based on the Monte Carlo technique. Liposomes formed during the process of sonication of lecithin were scanned in an ESR spectrometer. The membrane surface layer model, represented by the system of electric dipoles arranged in rectangular or hexagonal matrices, was studied. The final states of computer simulations were presented as textures. It was found that in the gel phase some ordered domain structures are formed, while in the liquid–crystal phase we got complex textures comprising…
