We report the first results of ab initio relativistic correlation calculation of the effective electric field on the electron, E_eff, in the ground state of the HI$^+$ cation. This value is required for interpretation of the suggested experiment on search for the electron electric dipole moment. The generalized relativistic effective core potential, Fock-space relativistic coupled cluster with single and double cluster amplitudes and spin-orbit direct configuration interaction methods are used, followed by nonvariational one-center restoration of the four-component wavefunction in the iodine core. The calculated value of E_eff by the coupled cluster method is E_eff=0.345times 10^{24}Hz/e*cm. Configuration interaction study gives E_eff=0.336times 10^{24}Hz/e*cm (our final value). The structure of chemical bonding and contributions to E_eff in HI$^+$ is clarified and significant deviation of our value from that obtained in Ravaine etal Phys.Rev.Lett., 94, 013001 (2005) is explained.

We report the theoretical investigation of the suppression of magnetic systematic effects in HfF$^+$ cation for the experiment to search for the electron electric dipole moment. The g-factors for $J = 1$, $F=3/2$, $|M_F|=3/2$ hyperfine levels of the $^3Delta_1$ state are calculated as functions of the external electric field. The lowest value for the difference between the g-factors of $Omega$-doublet levels, $Delta g = 3 times 10^{-6}$, is attained at the electric field 7 V/cm. The body-fixed g-factor, $G_{parallel}$, was obtained both within the electronic structure calculations and with our fit of the experimental data from [H. Loh, K. C. Cossel, M. C. Grau, K.-K. Ni, E. R. Meyer, J. L. Bohn, J. Ye, and E. A. Cornell, Science {bf 342}, 1220 (2013)]. For the electronic structure calculations we used a combined scheme to perform correlation calculations of HfF$^+$ which includes both the direct 4-component all-electron and generalized relativistic effective core potential approaches. The electron correlation effects were treated using the coupled cluster methods. The calculated value $G_{parallel}=0.0115$ agrees very well with the $G_{parallel}=0.0118$ obtained in the our fitting procedure. The calculated value $D_{parallel}=-1.53$ a.u. of the molecule frame dipole moment (with the origin in the center of mass) is in agreement with the experimental value $D_{parallel}=-1.54(1)$ a.u. [H. Loh, Ph.D. thesis, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2006)].
We investigate the merits of a measurement of the permanent electric dipole moment of the electron ($e$EDM) with barium monofluoride molecules, thereby searching for phenomena of CP violation beyond those incorporated in the Standard Model of particle physics. Although the BaF molecule has a smaller enhancement factor in terms of the effective electric field than other molecules used in current studies (YbF, ThO and ThF$^+$), we show that a competitive measurement is possible by combining Stark-deceleration, laser-cooling and an intense primary cold source of BaF molecules. With the long coherent interaction times obtainable in a cold beam of BaF, a sensitivity of $5times10^{-30}$ e$cdot$cm for an $e$EDM is feasible. We describe the rationale, the challenges and the experimental methods envisioned to achieve this target.
We recently set a new limit on the electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM) (J. Baron et al., ACME collaboration, Science 343 (2014), 269-272), which represented an order-of-magnitude improvement on the previous limit and placed more stringent constraints on many CP-violating extensions to the Standard Model. In this paper we discuss the measurement in detail. The experimental method and associated apparatus are described, together with the techniques used to isolate the eEDM signal. In particular, we detail the way experimental switches were used to suppress effects that can mimic the signal of interest. The methods used to search for systematic errors, and models explaining observed systematic errors, are also described. We briefly discuss possible improvements to the experiment.
The multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock theory (MCDHF) has been employed to calculate the electric dipole moment of the 7s6d 3D2 state of radium induced by the nuclear Schiff moment. The results are dominated by valence and core-valence electron correlation effects. We show that the correlation effects can be evaluated in a converged series of multiconfiguration expansions.
The energy splitings for $J = 1$, $F=3/2$, $|M_F|=3/2$ hyperfine levels of the $^3Delta_1$ electronic state of $^{180}$Hf$^{19}$F$^+$ ion are calculated as functions of the external variable electric and magnetic fields within two approaches. In the first one transition to the rotating frame is performed, whereas in the second approach the quantization of rotating electromagnetic field is performed. Calculations are required for understanding possible systematic errors in the experiment to search for electron electric dipole moment (eEDM) on $^{180}$Hf$^{19}$F$^+$ ion.
