Diatomic molecules such as BeCl are considered as good candidates in search for the nuclear anapole moment effect, because such molecules have close-lying molecular levels with opposite parity, where degeneracy can very easily occur in external fields, leading to a dramatic amplification of the tiny parity-violating effect. In order to interpret the results of precision measurements effectively, a parity-violating interaction parameter WA, which depends on molecular structure, needs to be calculated with high-accuracy. In this work, the calculations of the WA parameter for the Be atom in BeCl are carried out with various electron correlation approaches such as the open-shell single determinant average-ofconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (DHF), the relativistic density functional theory (DFT), the second-order Møller-Plesset method (MP2), the relativistic coupled cluster method with single, double, and perturbative triple excitation, namely CCSD and CCSD(T). The influence of electron correlations on the calculated WA parameter is investigated and discussed.","PeriodicalId":416768,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of International Conference on Precision Physics and Fundamental Physical Constants — PoS(FFK2019)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114402394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aim to contribute to tests of fundamental physics by measuring the 1S-2S transition in the He$^+$ ion for the first time. Combined with measurements in muonic helium ions this can probe the value of the Rydberg constant, test higher-order QED terms, or set benchmarks for ab initio nuclear polarizability calculations.

Recent achievements and future prospects in studies of the $g$ factor with highly charged ions are also reported. These studies can provide precise determination of the fundamental constants and tests of QED within and beyond the Furry picture at the strong-coupling regime. Theoretical calculations of the electron-positron pair creation probabilities in low-energy heavy-ion collisions are also considered. Special attention is paid to tests of QED in supercritical-field regime, which can be accessed in slow collisions of two bare nuclei with the total charge number larger than the critical value, $Z_{rm crit} approx 173$. In the supercritical field, the initially neutral vacuum can spontaneously decay into the charged vacuum and two positrons. It is demonstrated that this fundamental phenomenon can be observed via impact-sensitive measurements of the pair-production probabilities.","PeriodicalId":416768,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of International Conference on Precision Physics and Fundamental Physical Constants — PoS(FFK2019)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114590146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the so-called \"EPF\" paper made no claim for any WEP violations, a subsequent 1986 reanalysis of the EPF paper revealed a pattern in their data suggesting the presence of a new (\"fifth\") force in nature.
