6 Introduction Permanent electric dipole moment why choose atoms Permanent electric dipole moment d of a particle is measured from the response to external electromagnetic fields H int = d E µ B. EDM measurements of charged particles is nontrivial. Neutron and atoms, charge neutral, are ideal candidates. Origin EDM of subatomic particles: electron, proton and neutron. P and T violating e-e, e-n and n-n interactions. Atomic probes electron sector: paramagnetic atoms, nuclear sector: diamagnetic atoms.

8 Introduction Theoretical calculations Atomic theory For heavy atoms relativistic effects are important and Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian is appropriate NX H DC = [cα i p i + c 2 (β i 1) Z(ri) i=1 Closed-shell atomic EDM originate from N,N X ] + r i i<j 1 r i r j. Tensor pseudotensor e-n interactions H PTV = igf CT 2 X σ N γ iρ N (r). i Nuclear Schiff moment H PTV = X i 4π S δ( R i). Electronic wave-functions near the origin contribute, due to ρ N (r) and δ(r) in the interaction Hamiltonians,

9 Introduction Coupled-cluster and atomic EDM Coupled-cluster state Atomic states are solutions of the Schrödinger equation H DC Ψ i = E i Ψ i. Partition the Hamiltonian H DC = H o + V es and evaluate the eigenstates of H o. Consider V es as perturbation and evaluate Ψ i perturbatively. Another option, calculate Ψ i nonperturbatively with coupled-cluster theory [Latha et al, J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 80, (2007)] Cluster amplitudes are solutions of Ψ i = e T Φ i. Φ r a e T HN DC e T Φ i = 0, Φ rs ab e T HN DC e T Φ i = 0. These are set of nonlinear algebraic equations.

10 Introduction Coupled-cluster and atomic EDM Atomic EDM Total atomic Hamiltonian, including H PTV, is H atom = H DC + λh PTV. Eigenstates of H atom are mixed parity states Ψ f i and perturbatively, f Ψ i = X I Ψ I ΨI HPTV Ψi E i E I, Ψ I opposite parity to Ψ i. Atomic EDM D a = f Ψ i D f Ψ i = 2 X I Ψ i D Ψ I Ψ I H PTV Ψ i E i E I. Calculations of all Ψ I impractical with coupled-cluster. Most dominant contributions considered.

Cluster amplitude T (1) incorporates H PTV to first order and residual Coulomb to all order. Diagrammatically represented as Perturbed states are solutions of Schrödinger equation (H DC + λh PTV)e T (0) +λt (1) Φ o = E ie T (0) +λt (1) Φ o. Perturbed state f Ψ 0 does not require sum over intermediate states.

18 Some issues related to T (1) Diagrams Diagrams For close-shell atoms, coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) approximation consist of 79 T (0) diagrams. Whereas, there are 137 T (1) diagrams. Examples of Goldstone double substitution diagrams Identitcal diagrams when T (0) 2 replaces T (1) 2.

20 Some issues related to T (1) Properties of T (1) Properties of T (1) Only s-p matrix elements of H PTV are nonzero, igf CT X H PTV = σ N γ iρ N (r), H PTV = X 2 i i 4π S δ( R i). G F is parameter of calculations. Consequently, H PTV matrix elements are large in magnitude and slow the convergence of cluster amplitudes. As H PTV is one-body operator, among the perturbed cluster operators T (1) 1 are dominant. Number of cluster amplitudes is very large: different parity selection rules ( 1) la+lp ( 1) l b+l q and multipole coupling λ 1 1 λ 2 λ

21 Some issues related to T (1) 6j symbols 6j symbols Angular factors have large number of 6j symbols and 9j symbols. Computationally expensive. Calculation of 6j symbols take 30% run time. To improve performance, tabulate it. Optimal implementation is imposing partial triangular condition and selected symmetry properties [Latha, DA and Das, arxiv: ]. Binary operations in retrieval from table is far less than numerical evaluations.

22 Some issues related to T (1) 6j symbols D a from Coupled-cluster Ground state D a is expectation of D in the perturbed ground atomic state D a = f Ψ o D f Ψ o f Ψ o f Ψ o From the definition f Ψ o = exp[t (0) + λt (1) ] Φ o, D a = Φo [DT (1) + T (1) D] Φ o, where D = e T (0) De T (0). Φ o Φ o In this expression D has infinite terms and calculation is truncated at some order of T (0). The dressed operator D can be partitioned as D = (1 + T (0) + 1 2! T (0) ! T (0) )De T (0), = De T (0) + X n=1 1 n! (T (0) ) n De T (0).
