Ronald Fernando Garcia Ruiz, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will be speaking.
The presentation is titled "Exotic Atoms and Molecules for Nuclear Science."
Abstract: Precise knowledge of the interaction between the atomic nucleus and the surrounding electrons offers a complementary insight into the atomic nucleus and the fundamental particles and forces of nature. Exotic atoms and molecules - those containing nuclei with extreme proton-to-neutron ratios - can be tailored to investigate particular details of electron-nucleon interactions and enhanced their symmetry-violating properties. Thereby offering high sensitivity to access to unexplored nuclear phenomena, to study the violation of fundamental symmetries, and to search for new physics. In this talk, I will present recent results from laser spectroscopy experiments of these exotic species. The relevance of these results to some of the main questions of nuclear science will be discussed. more information...
