Precision measurements of the Stark shifts in alkali-metal atoms @1,2# have been used to refine the calculations of alkali-metal atomic wave functions, motivated, in part, by precision parity nonconservation measurements in Cs. Hg atoms are used to set one of the most significant limits on a permanent electric dipole moment ~EDM! @3#. The search for an EDM does not require very precise atomic c...

Educational Data Mining (EDM) is an emerging interdisciplinary research area that deals with the development of methods to explore data originating in an educational context. EDM uses different computational approaches to analyze educational data in order to study educational questions. Different data mining techniques has been applied in this area. One of the most widely used techniques in EDM...

Data from the muon g-2 experiment at Brookhaven National Lab has been analyzed to search for a muon electric dipole moment(EDM), which would violate parity and time reversal symmetries. An EDM would cause a tilt in the spin precession plane of the muons, resulting in a vertical oscillation in the position of electrons hitting the detectors. No signal has been observed. Based on this analysis, a...

Engineering ceramics have been widely used in modern industry for their excellent physical and mechanical properties, and they are difficult to machine owing to their high hardness and brittleness. Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is the appropriate process for machining engineering ceramics provided they are electrically conducting. However, the electrical resistivity of the popular engine...

High-frequency vibration aided EDM has become one of the ways to increase material removal rate in EDM process, due to the flushing effect caused by vibration. However, utilizing high-frequency vibration, especially in ultrasonic range consumes a lot of setup cost. This work presents an attempt to use a low-frequency vibration on workpiece of stainless steel (SS 304) during EDM process. The wor...

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a wellestablished non-conventional machining process, used for manufacturing geometrically complex or hard and electrically conductive material parts that are extremely difficult to cut by other conventional machining processes. But sometimes poor surface finish and low volumetric material removal rate limits its use in the industry. To diffuse this probl...

Searches for a permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) provide a unique constraint on violation of CP symmetry beyond the Standard Model. Recent experiments improved the limits on EDMs of Hg and the electron. Combined with the limit on the neutron EDM and recent advances in theoretical interpretation, they set very tight constraints on CP violation in Supersymmetry. Many new experimental ideas a...

21 Abstract— This article presents a model of the EDM system for an Electrical Discharge Machine (EDM), which accurately predicts the material removal rate for particular electrodes and workpieces. A value for the material removal rate constant, α α α α has been identified based on the empirical analysis carried out on the experimental data and compared with the simulation result from the model...

The enhancement factors of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the ground states of two paramagnetic atoms; rubidium (Rb) and caesium (Cs) which are sensitive to the electron EDM are computed using the relativistic coupled-cluster theory and our results are compared with the available calculations and measurements. The possibility of improving the limit for the electron EDM using the results of...
