Status Updates on the FRIB-EDM3 Instrument: A Tool For Creating And Spectroscopically Studying Radioactive Molecules For Tests Of Fundamental Symmetries

This presentation was a joint effort between myself (Aiden Boyer) and Nicholas Nusgart, the other graduate student working on the EDM3 project. This talk was 30 minutes in length followed by 10 minutes of questions and was given as part of the Research Discussion series at FRIB. I handled the first half of the presentation which focused on the apparatus and the upgrade of our electrospray, while Nick handled the latter half which focuses on the quadrupole mass filtering requirements and ro-hyperfine molecular structure.
