Summary
With support from the Chemical Structure and Dynamics (CSD) program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Michael Heaven at Emory University and Professor Richard Mawhorter at Pomona College are conducting gas phase high-resolution molecular spectroscopy measurements of candidate molecules to probe their potential to advance the search for physics beyond the standard model (BSM). The remarkably successful standard model cannot explain the imbalance of matter and anti-matter in the universe. Violations of molecular symmetry properties, detected by precision spectroscopic measurements, can pro
