Neutron Electric Dipole Moment - Current Experiments

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 all participate in weaving the social fabric; we should therefore all participate in patching the fabric when it develops holes—mismatches between old expectations and current realities.
    Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)

    Science is a dynamic undertaking directed to lowering the degree of the empiricism involved in solving problems; or, if you prefer, science is a process of fabricating a web of interconnected concepts and conceptual schemes arising from experiments and observations and fruitful of further experiments and observations.
    James Conant (1893–1978)
