Measurement of the permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron
C. Abel, S. Afach, N. J. Ayres +81
We present the result of an experiment to measure the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron at the Paul Scherrer Institute using Ramsey's method of separated oscillating magn…
Demonstration of sensitivity increase in mercury free-spin-precession magnetometers due to laser-based readout for neutron electric dipole moment searches
G. Ban, G. Bison, K. Bodek +31
We report on a laser based Hg co-magnetometer deployed in an experiment searching for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron. We demonstrate a more than five tim…
Measurement of a false electric dipole moment signal from Hg atoms exposed to an inhomogeneous magnetic field
S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +46
We report on the measurement of a Larmor frequency shift proportional to the electric-field strength for atoms contained in a volume permeated with aligned magneti…
A measurement of the neutron to 199Hg magnetic moment ratio
S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +51
The neutron gyromagnetic ratio has been measured relative to that of the 199Hg atom with an uncertainty of 0.8 ppm. We employed an apparatus where ultracold neutrons and mercury at…
Experimental study of 199Hg spin anti-relaxation coatings
Z. Chowdhuri, M. Fertl, M. Horras +8
We report on a comparison of spin relaxation rates in a Hg magnetometer using different wall coatings. A compact mercury magnetometer was built for this purpose. Glass cell…
An Improved Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment
M. Burghoff, A. Schnabel, G. Ban +34
A permanent electric dipole moment of fundamental spin-1/2 particles violates both parity (P) and time re- versal (T) symmetry, and hence, also charge-parity (CP) symmetry since th…
