Measuring the size of permanent electric dipole moments (EDM) of a particle or system provides a powerful tool to test Beyond-the-Standard-Model physics. The diamagnetic $^{129}$Xe atom is one of the promising candidates for EDM experiments due to its obtainable high nuclear polarization and its long spin-coherence time in a homogeneous magnetic field. By measuring the spin precession frequencies of polarized $^{129}$Xe and $^{3}$He, a new upper limit on the $^{129}$Xe atomic EDM $d_mathrm{A}(^{129}mathrm{Xe})$ was reported in Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 143003 (2019). This writeup proposes a new evaluation method based on global phase fitting (GPF) for analyzing the continuous phase development of the $^{3}$He-$^{129}$Xe comagnetometer signal. The Cramer-Rao Lower Bound on the $^{129}$Xe EDM for the GPF method is theoretically derived and shows the benefit of achieving high statistical sensitivity without bringing new systematic uncertainties. The robustness of the GPF method is verified with Monte-Carlo studies. By optimizing the analysis parameters and adding few more data that could not be analyzed with the former method, a result of [ { d_mathrm{A} (^{129}mathrm{Xe})=(1.1 pm 3.6_mathrm{(stat)} pm 2.0_mathrm{(syst)})times 10 ^{-28} e~mathrm{cm}}, ] is obtained and is used to derive the upper limit of $^{129}$Xe permanent EDM at 95% C.L. [ {|d_text{A}(^{129}text{Xe})| < 8.3 times 10^{-28}~e~mathrm{cm}}. ] This limit is a factor of 1.7 smaller as compared to the previous result.

We report on a new measurement of the CP-violating permanent Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of the neutral $^{129}$Xe atom. Our experimental approach is based on the detection of the free precession of co-located nuclear spin-polarized $^3$He and $^{12 9}$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, $left(-4.7pm6.4right)cdot 10^{-28}$ ecm, is consistent with zero and is used to place a new upper limit on the $^{129}$Xe EDM: $|d_text{Xe}|<1.5 cdot 10^{-27}$ ecm (95% C.L.). We also discuss the implications of this result for various CP-violating observables as they relate to theories of physics beyond the standard model.

We describe a new technique to measure the EDM of $^{129}$Xe with $^3$He comagnetometry. Both species are polarized using spin-exchange optical pumping, transferred to a measurement cell, and transported into a magnetically shielded room, where SQUID magnetometers detect free precession in applied electric and magnetic fields. The result of a one week run combined with a detailed study of systematic effects is $d_A(^{129}mathrm{Xe}) = (0.26 pm 2.33_mathrm{stat} pm 0.72_mathrm{syst})times10^{-27}~e,mathrm{cm}$. This corresponds to an upper limit of $|d_A(^{129}mathrm{Xe})| < 4.81times 10^{-27} ~e,mathrm{cm}~(95%~mathrm{CL})$, a factor of 1.4 more sensitive than the previous limit.

We report results of a new technique to measure the electric dipole moment of $^{129}$Xe with $^3$He comagnetometry. Both species are polarized using spin-exchange optical pumping, transferred to a measurement cell, and transported into a magneticall y shielded room, where SQUID magnetometers detect free precession in applied electric and magnetic fields. The result from a one week measurement campaign in 2017 and a 2.5 week campaign in 2018, combined with detailed study of systematic effects, is $d_A(^{129}mathrm{Xe}) = (1.4 pm 6.6_mathrm{stat} pm 2.0_mathrm{syst})times10^{-28}~e,mathrm{cm}$. This corresponds to an upper limit of $|d_A(^{129}mathrm{Xe})| < 1.4 times 10^{-27} ~e,mathrm{cm}~(95%~mathrm{CL})$, a factor of five more sensitive than the limit set in 2001.
The electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM) can be measured with high precision using heavy polar molecules. In this paper, we report on a series of new techniques that have improved the statistical sensitivity of the YbF eEDM experiment. We in crease the number of molecules participating in the experiment by an order of magnitude using a carefully designed optical pumping scheme. We also increase the detection efficiency of these molecules by another order of magnitude using an optical cycling scheme. In addition, we show how to destabilise dark states and reduce backgrounds that otherwise limit the efficiency of these techniques. Together, these improvements allow us to demonstrate a statistical sensitivity of $1.8 times 10^{-28}$ e cm after one day of measurement, which is 1.2 times the shot-noise limit. The techniques presented here are applicable to other high-precision measurements using molecules.
We demonstrate one-dimensional sub-Doppler laser cooling of a beam of YbF molecules to 100 $mu$K. This is a key step towards a measurement of the electrons electric dipole moment using ultracold molecules. We compare the effectiveness of magnetically -assisted and polarization-gradient sub-Doppler cooling mechanisms. We model the experiment and find good agreement with our data.
