Description
We report several advances in the field of ion beam development towards the study of radioactive molecules. Radioactive molecules are predicted to be powerful tools in the study of physics beyond the standard model, as they potentially enhance permanent dipole moments in the leptonic (electron electric dipole moment - eEDM) or hadronic (Nuclear Schiff moment, Magnetic Quadrupole Moment - NSM, MQM) sector.
We report the creation of molecules from an offline mass separator and the design and assembly of a light collection region (LCR) enabling laser spectroscopic study of molecular ions of interest.
