The existence of permanent neutron electric dipole moment(nEDM) violates the time reversal symmetry, therefore this is good probe for search CP violation from new physics beyond the standard model of particle physics(assuming CPT= 1). The present upper limit was measured by using stored ultra-cold neutrons. Now we consider nEDM measurement by crystal diffraction of thermal neutrons. Candidates of the crystal are α-Quarts, BGO, DKDP. the experimental feasibility is discussed. At J-PARC BL17, about 80 days measurement reaches to the sensitivity of d n = 10 −26 [e • cm] using (046) plane of BGO crystal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
