$\mathcal{P,T}$-odd effects in YbCu, YbAg and YbAu
Abstract
In this work, the molecular enhancement factors of the -odd interactions involving the electron electric dipole moment () and the scalar-pseudoscalar nucleon-electron couplings () are computed for the ground state of the bimetallic molecules YbCu, YbAg and YbAu. These systems offer a promising venue for creating cold molecules by associating laser cooled atoms. The relativistic coupled-cluster approach is used in the calculations and a thorough uncertainty analysis is performed to give accurate and reliable uncertainties to the obtained values. Furthermore, an in-depth investigation of the different electronic structure effects that determine the magnitude of the calculated enhancement factors is carried out, and two different schemes for computing are compared. The recommended values for the enhancement factors are , and for , and , and for , for YbCu, YbAg and YbAu, respectively.
