We present a generalized Schiff transformation on electric dipole moments (EDM) in quantum field theory. By the unitary transformation, the time and parity violating interaction igψ̄σμνγ5ψF μν is transformed into a new form, but its nonrelativistic reduction has a unique form, which is free from Schiff’s theorem. With this operator, we estimate the EDM for the Cs case (dCs) with nonrelativistic ...

The use of unconventional machining techniques in shaping metal matrix composites (MMCs) has generated considerable interest as the manufacturing of complicated die contours. Metal matrix composites are advanced materials having high specific strength, good wear resistance, and high thermal expansion coefficient. Electrical discharge machining is a best process to make complicated shapes on the...

Heavy polar molecules offer a great sensitivity to the electron electric dipole moment (EDM). To guide emerging searches for EDMs with molecular ions, we estimate the EDM-induced energy corrections for hydrogen halide ions HBr(+) and HI(+) in their respective ground X (2)Pi(3/2) states. We find that the energy corrections due to EDM for the two ions differ by an unexpectedly large factor of 15....

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is well established machining technique mainly used to machine complex geometries on difficult-to-machine materials and high strength temperature resistant alloys. In the present research, the objective is to study the shape of the electrode and establish the application of liquid nitrogen in reducing distortion of the electrode during electrical discharge m...

BACKGROUND Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is associated with improved outcomes after surgery. The esophageal Doppler monitor (EDM) is widely used, but has several limitations. The NICOM, a completely noninvasive cardiac output monitor (Cheetah Medical), may be appropriate for guiding GDFT. No prospective studies have compared the NICOM and the EDM. We hypothesized that the NICOM is not sign...

In the present paper Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) models are proposed for the prediction of surface roughness in Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM). For this purpose two well-known programs, namely Matlab with associated toolboxes, as well as Netlab , were employed. Training of the models was performed with data from an extensive series of EDM experiments on steel grades; the proposed mo...

This paper examines the spaces, politics, and cultural economies of electronic dance music (EDM). I use geographical literature on EDM to argue that its hedonistic spaces have been forged via cultural economic practices which I conceptualize as constitutive of a process of ‘accumulation by cooperation’. In numerous contexts, the people of EDM – the DJs, producers, MCs, artists, promoters, and r...

In this paper, the electric-discharge machining (EDM) of non-contact seal grooves was studied. Two types of material, namely: tungsten carbide and silicon carbide were tested by EDM due to their hard machining behaviors. The geometry of seal grooves is another reason why grinding or other precision machining processes cannot be applied. Four parameters of EDM processes were studied, namely: ele...

The experimental search for neutron electric dipole moment (EDM-experiment) is considered to be one of the crucial experiments in physics as it should explain the nature of violation in relation to time reversal. In practically every work concerning T-violation, possible effects are estimated basing on normalization to the upper limit of neutron EDM. So far it has been the most sensitive method...

Ti-6Al-4V hour-glass shaped rotating beam specimens with duplex microstructure were processed by electric discharge machining (EDM). A comparatively high peak current of 29A was utilized in order to increase surface roughness for improved osteointegration. High cycle fatigue (HCF) tests were performed in rotating beam loading (R=-1) on these EDM specimens and results were compared with electrol...
