‚Ingredients‘ to model baryogenesis:
Sakharov criteria
Remarks:
- Beyond-SM physics usually requires large EDMs
- EDMs and Baryogenesis via Leptogenesis?
- Also other options w/o new CP violation possible (Kostelecky, CPT)
- SUSY: small CPV phases, heavy masses, cancellations?
- What do we learn from an EDM?
Different measurements are needed!

Next generation neutron EDMs
E.g. at FRM-II (reactor):
- ‚Conventional‘, double chamber
- UCN velocity tuning
- Cs, 3He, 199Hg, 129Xe (co)magnetometers
- Ready for UCN in 1 year
E.g. at SNS (spallation):
- Cryogenic, double chamber
- Neutron detection via spin dependent
3He absorption and scintillation
- 3He co-magnetometry
In the future... again nEDM with a cold beam?
Pulse structure and strong peak flux:
- Cold-beam-EDM at long-pulse-neutron source (ESS) could be
competitive? (Piegsa, PRC, soon...)
- Re-accelerated polarized UCN with pulse-structure? (PF, in prep.)
P. Fierlinger – MeNu2013
Next generation nucleon EDMs
Proton, deuteron, ... EDM
Charged particle EDM searches require the development of a new
class of high-precision storage rings
Projected sensitivity ~ 10-29 ecm: … tests  to < 10-13!
Currently 2 approaches:
- JEDI collab.: starting with COSY ring, development in stages
E, B fields
- BNL: completely electrostatic, new design
all-electric ring
Requirements:
-
Electric field gradients 17 MV/m (possible)
Spin coherence times > 1000 s (200s demonstrated at Jülich)
Continuous polarimetry < 1 ppm error (demonstrated at Jülich)
Spin tracking simulations of 109 particles over 1000 s

Best limits:
Shapiro, Usp. Fiz. Nauk., 95 145 (1968)
Mainly paramagnetic systems and polar molecules
- Cs, Tl, YbF: de < 1.05.10-27 ecm (E. Hinds et al.)
- Soon: ThO – currently taking data
- Molecules, molecular ions, solids: PbO, PbF, HBr, BaF, HgF, GGG,
Gd2Ga5O12 etc.
- dGGG ~ < 10-24 ecm
- d < 1.8 . 10-19 (90%) ecm from g-2
- d < 1.7 . 10-17 (90%) ecm from Z
Diamagnetic atoms also
contribute to such limits!

ThO molecules:
100 GV/cm internal electric field due to level structure,
polarizable with very small lab-field
Small magnetic moment, therefore less sensitive to B-field quality
High Z: enhancement
Well understood system
Lasers to select states
High statistics:
strong cold beam
Status: taking data with 10-28 ecm /day

Summary
New EDM experiments are highly sensitive probes for new physics
Several experiments must be performed to understand the underlying
physics. (Then, also a measured limit may be a discovery...)
Experimental techniques span from
table top AMO - solid state - low temperature – accelerators - neutron
physics
Next generation precision within next
2 years: nEDM ~ few 10-27 ecm
atoms ~ < 1.10-29 ecm (ThO, 199Hg, 129Xe)
6 years: nEDM ~ few 10-28 ecm
atoms - hard to predict
... Note: my nEDM time estimate stayed constant since 2009
P. Fierlinger – MeNu2013
Re-acceleration of UCN
A possibility to produce extremely high brightness ‚cold‘ neutron beams:
concept demonstrated (Rauch et al.)
Next step:
Perfect polarization
(PF et al.)
Again: nEDM measured with a cold beam?
Beam-EDM at long-pulse-neutron source could be
competitive (Piegsa et al., to be published soon)
Why not use a combination: perfectly polarized, reaccelerated high brightness beam with extremely well
known time structure for in-beam EDM?
