Description

Nuclear electric dipole moments (EDMs) and Schiff moments for the lowest 1/2+ states around the mass 130 are calculated in terms of the nuclear shell model. We estimate the upper limits of the nuclear EDMs, which may be directly measured through ionic atoms. The nuclear EDM of each nucleus is slightly quenched from its single-particle estimate due to many-body effects. We also estimate the upper limit for the EDM of neutral 129Xe atom using the Schiff moment. (author)
