Current Experiments
Currently, there are at least four experiments aiming at improving the current limit (or measuring for the first time) on the neutron EDM with a sensitivity down to 10–28e·cm over the next 10 years, thereby covering the range of prediction coming from Supersymmetric extensions to the Standard Model.
- Cryogenic neutron EDM experiment being set up at the Institut Laue-Langevin
- nEDM experiment under construction at the new UCN source at the Paul Scherrer Institute
- nEDM experiment being envisaged at the Spallation Neutron Source
- nEDM experiment being built at the Institut Laue-Langevin

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or experiments:
“We hear the haunting presentiment of a dutiful middle age in the current reluctance of young people to select any option except the one they feel will impinge upon them the least.”
—Gail Sheehy (b. 1937)
“There are three principal means of acquiring knowledge available to us: observation of nature, reflection, and experimentation. Observation collects facts; reflection combines them; experimentation verifies the result of that combination. Our observation of nature must be diligent, our reflection profound, and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined; and for this reason, creative geniuses are not common.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
