The equation of motion of electronic spin based on QED does notlose the information of local contribution, and it gives a newperspective even for the spin stationary state.

Time reversal
Electron EDM and T violation
Time : 𝒕 → −𝒕
Spin : 𝒔 → −𝒔
EDM : 𝒅 → 𝒅
With the CPT invariance,T violation
meansCP violation.
Electric dipole moment (EDM) of electron is a significant key to reveal a violation of the time-reversal symmetry.
CP violation may be a hint of the mystery of thedominance of matter over antimatter in ouruniverse.

Heavy polar diatomic molecules are used in the present experiments.
Relativistic effects and correlation effects are essentially important for the computation of heavy atoms.

Calculation method for the EDM effective electric fieldUsing no approximation for molecular internal electric field needsmuch time and computational costs due to the product of fourcreation and annihilation operators in the electric field of electrons.

Calculation method for the EDM effective electric field
To avoid time consuming calculations,some approximation methods are widely used. Approximation method “nuc” uses only the electric field of nuclei.
The deviation by this approximation is reported to be within 3% in YbF†.
Approximation method “ob” uses the effective EDM one-body operator.Electric field of electrons is included in the computation.

In QM, the local contribution of the zeta force density is lost because
the zeta force density is the gradient of the zeta potential 𝜙5 𝑥 .

The value of the EDM effective electric field depends on the scalar product of 𝜓𝑆† ℏ
2 𝜎 𝜓𝑆 and
𝐸nuc.
As shown in figures, the distribution pattern of 𝜓𝑆† ℏ
2 𝜎 𝜓𝑆 in HF+ is nearly antisymmetric to a plane
which intersects orthogonally with the internuclear axis on the F nucleus. On the other hand, thedistribution pattern in YbF is asymmetric.

It can be predicted that even light atomic molecules could have the large EDMeffective electric field if the small component of the spin angular momentumdensity has an asymmetric distribution pattern.

ConclusionLocal picture of electron spin based on QED is studied,in relation to the electron EDM. We have calculated and have clarified that
an asymmetric distribution pattern of the small component of the spin angular momentum density yields large .
We have shown the local spin torque density and have demonstratedthat the local pictures of the spin enables us to understand some of thephysical origin of spin phenomena.
Future work Clarify the mechanism that the small component of the spin angular
momentum density has an asymmetric distribution pattern. Calculate molecular internal electric field accurately and evaluate the
EDM torque and without approximation. Explore new prediction methods of the spin precession.
