Abstract

We report the results of our calculations of the atomic electric dipole moments of cesium and thallium arising from the electron-nucleus scalar-pseudoscalar interaction. The calculations are based on the all order relativistic coupled-cluster theory. Electron correlation effects, particularly in the case of thallium are of crucial importance. We obtain a new limit for the scalar-pseudoscalar interaction by combining the result of our thallium calculation and the measured value of the electric dipole moment of that atom.
