Description

Electric dipole moments (EDMs) are a convenient low-energy observable with high-energy implications. They induce violations of parity and time-reversal symmetry in atoms and molecules, which lead to experimental signatures that be precisely measured using atomic physics techniques.

I will provide an overview of EDM searches with atoms and molecules, discuss recent developments, and guess at what the future holds for this vibrant field.
