Generating a highly uniform magnetic field inside the magnetically shielded room of the n2EDM experiment

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +63

We present a coil system designed to generate a highly uniform magnetic field for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. It consists of a main coil and a set of…

Achieving ultra-low and -uniform residual magnetic fields in a very large magnetically shielded room for fundamental physics experiments

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

High-precision searches for an electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) require stable and uniform magnetic field environments. We present the recent achievements of degaussing…
