Background: Octupole-deformed nuclei, such as that of $^{225}$Ra, are expected to amplify observable atomic electric dipole moments (EDMs) that arise from time-reversal and parity-violating interactions in the nuclear medium. In 2015, we…
The sensitivity much better than $10^{-24} e$ cm may be expected in the searches for electric dipole moments (EDM) of $\beta$-active nuclei at ion storage rings. It would be a serious progress in studies of the CP-violation problem.
