Title : Toward precision spectroscopy of CHDBrI+ in search of parity violation
Abstract: The weak force is predicted to break the parity symmetry between left and
right-handed chiral molecules, but so far the effect has eluded detection. We
are developing a trapped chiral molecular ion version of the search for parity violation (PV). Our candidate molecule, CHDBrI+ is predicted to be preparable via state-selective ionization [1] and to exhibit a large PV shift of a few Hz for the C-H bend vibrational transition, where the transition’s natural linewidth is narrower than the shift [2].
We will discuss the status of the experiment including our plan for chirality-resolved differential vibrational spectroscopy [3] and our ion trap that is integrated with a pulsed velocity map imaging detector for internal state
population detection of the molecules.
Additionally, we will discuss the advantages chiral molecules have in searches for new physics in hypothetical nucleon-nucleon interactions that are P-odd [4].
