Abstract:
The Storage Ring EDM method was developed based on the muon g-2 experimental techniques. The muon g-2 experiment provides, indirectly, some sensitivity to muon EDM. We have focused on developing a dedicated Storage Ring EDM method, first for the muon (10^{-24} e.cm) and then the proton (10^{-29} e.cm with 10^{-30} e.cm a distinct possibility) and deuteron (10^{-29} e.cm) nuclei, to optimize sensitivity on the particle EDM. For the proton and deuteron beams, the available polarized beam intensities provide a revolution in statistical sensitivity and a great opportunity to answer the matter-antimatter asymmetry mystery of our universe.
