We find d(199Hg) = (0.49 \pm 1.29_stat \pm 0.76_syst) x 10^{-29} e cm, and interpret this as a new upper bound, |d(199Hg)| < 3.1 x 10^{-29} e cm (95% C.L.). This result improves our previous 199Hg limit by a factor of 7, and can be used to set new constraints on CP violation in physics beyond the standard model.4 pages, 4 figures. additional reference, minor edits in response to reviewer commentsAtomic PhysicsImproved limit on the permanent electric dipole moment of 199Hgtext
