Atom EDM search ~ T violation
Time Reversal and EDM
Time Reversal Symmetry ~ Violation ? ~ Test !Dominance of Matter over Antimatter in Universe ?
CPT ~ invariant in quantum field theory : No evidence of violationC: Charge Conjugation ~ violation in weak interaction P: Parity ~ violation in weak interaction T: Time Reversal ~ No evidence of violation
CP: violation was found ~ K0, B decayCPT theorem + CP violation → T violation ?

Relativistic effect
Unique points of experiment
1. Heaviest Alkali Atom : Francium EDM enhancement factor :K=1150 ~ Maximum Produced by fusion reaction with high intensity ECR ion source + AVF cyclotronReaction 18/16O + 197Au → 207-211Fr + Xn
2. Extremely cold atom : Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) production techniqueCoherence time : τ ~ Long Atoms localized ~ 10 μm order → Applied electric field : E ~ constant High vacuum → High electric field : E ~ possible Ultra cold → small effect of kinematical magnetic field : v×E
3. Rapid cooling ~ Radioactive atom with finite life time ( ~ minutes)Chip trap = Magnetic trap + Evaporation cooling : N,T ~ large
