Status of the Los Alamos neutron Electric Dipole Moment search

A permanent neutron Electric Dipole Moment (nEDM) presents an experimentally accessible probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. Six and a half decades of experiments have reduced its upper bound by as many decades, from 5×10⁻²⁰ e·cm to 1.8×10⁻²⁶ e·cm. Further experimental reductions of the nEDM upper bound have been hindered by insufficient ultracold neutron (UCN) density. The solid deuterium UCN source at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) generates sufficient densities of stored UCN to measure nEDM at 3×10^-27 e·cm with established technologies. Commissioning of the LANL nEDM experiment is underway, with the magnetically shielded room and B0 coil system assembled. This talk will present the status of the experiment and its operational timeline.
