New Neutron Electric Dipole Moment Search using a Beam
We are proposing a new neutron electric dipole moment search using a (pulsed) beam, which has been recently described [Piegsa, Phys. Rev. C 88 (2013) 045502]. The final full-scale experiment is intended for the ESS, however, an important proof-of-principle investigation will need to be performed at a high-intensity neutron instrument like PF1b at ILL. Hence, for the investigation of important systematic effects, feasibility studies, component testing, and subsequent production runs, we plan to apply for a considerable amount of beam time in the coming years. For this year we would like to apply for 3 weeks of beam time, to gather experience with the neutron beam and our prototype setup currently under development in our laboratories at the University of Bern (Switzerland). The important milestone of this measurement campaign will consist of determining/evaluating the (future) statistical sensitivity of the concept.
