EDM: PSI F overall = 100
The PNPI experiment EDM • Polarize neutrons || B0 while filling the bottle • Apply B(wt) B0 to get neutron spin to B0 • Wait for a time T (~100 s): spin precesses about B0 • Apply B(wt) to get neutron spin || to B0; if w wL = (w -wL )T • Analyze polarization: P = P0 cos()
Improvements Mainly performed by the group at PNPI (V. Lobashev et al.): official collaboration agreement with TUM • higher degree of polarization – triple polarizers: a = 0.75 • higher electric field E - new material (CERAN): E = 10 kV/cm • more neutrons N- FRM II + UCN source, more efficient neutron guides • longer storage time T - better coating, better stability of B0: T 150 s • Systematic errors: stable B0 (3fT!) - 3He magnetometer with SQIDs (W. Heil, Mainz), better shielding, polarization and analysis with the same arrangement

The PDG feels it has the right to redefine anything it wants • 1994: • The “centimeters” on the ruler on p. 227 of the booklet • are 0.97 cm long, because: • The booklet were returned from the printer at 0.25 times • the speed of light • A theorist is in charge of the PDG • The PDG feels it has the right to redefine anything it wants • There is a general decline of standards • There was an international conspiracy • It was a congressionally mandated cost-saving measure • PDG gives you more cm/inch than anyone else Is there a general decline of standards?
