Simulation and optimization of the Active Magnetic Shield of the n2EDM experiment

N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +47

The n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute aims to conduct a high-sensitivity search for the electric dipole moment of the neutron. Magnetic stability and control are achi…

Mapping of the magnetic field to correct systematic effects in a neutron electric dipole moment experiment

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +50

Experiments dedicated to the measurement of the electric dipole moment of the neutron require outstanding control of the magnetic field uniformity. The neutron electric dipole mome…

A search for neutron to mirror-neutron oscillations

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +40

It has been proposed that there could be a mirror copy of the standard model particles, restoring the parity symmetry in the weak interaction on the global level. Oscillations betw…

Cryogenic magnetic coil and superconducting magnetic shield for neutron electric dipole moment searches

S. Slutsky, C. M. Swank, A. Biswas +10

A magnetic coil operated at cryogenic temperatures is used to produce spatial, relative field gradients below 6 ppm/cm, stable for several hours. The apparatus is a prototype of th…

Characterization of protonated and deuterated Tetra-Phenyl Butadiene Film in a Polystyrene Matrix

V. M. Gehman, T. M. Ito, W. C. Griffith +1

We study the effect of deuteration and annealing on the fluorescence spectrum shape and VUV to visible conversion efficiency of TPB films in a polystyrene matrix with input light f…

A new limit on the permanent electric dipole moment of ^{199}Hg

M. V. Romalis, W. C. Griffith, E. N. Fortson

We present the first results of a new search for a permanent electric dipole moment of the ^{199}Hg atom using a UV laser. Our measurements give d(Hg)= - (1.06 +/- 0.49 +/- 0.40) 1…
