Prospects for parity-nonconservation experiments with highly charged heavy ions.

We discuss the prospects for parity non-conservation experiments with highly charged heavy ions. Energy levels and parity mixing for heavy ions with two to five electrons are calculated. We investigate two-photontransitions and the possibility to observe interference effects between weakmatrix elements and Stark matrix elements for periodic electric field configurations.

Atomic Parity-Violation in Highly-Charged Ions

The investigation of parity-violation (PV) in forbidden atomic transitions is an active and fundamental research area, especially for its implications on the physics beyond the Standard Model [1]. Atomic transitions may be employed to study PV effects originating from weak neutral currents, i.e. due to the exchange of a Z boson between a nucleon of the nucleus and a bound electron. Experiments ...

APHYSTHE Theory for Atomic Physics with Heavy Ions

Stored Particle Atomic Research Collaboration

The Conceptual Design Report (CDR) on “An International Accelerator Facility for Beams of Ions and Antiprotons” formed the basis of the present Letter of Intent (LoI). The scientific motivation for a broad variety of atomic physics experiments with highly-charged heavy ions at the new facility and the first concepts of a practical realization are extensively reported in Section 2 of the CDR ent...
