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.
