The Electric Dipole Moment Challenge

Více o knize

Focusing on the experimental approach to measuring the electric dipole moment (EDM) of protons, the book proposes a method utilizing a 'frozen spin' proton beam within a storage ring trap. A measurable proton EDM would challenge the standard model of particle physics. The text highlights the significance of EDM measurements in testing current theories, emphasizing their affordability compared to high-energy accelerator projects, despite the inherent difficulties in obtaining precise measurements due to the smallness of EDMs.
