The J-PARC muon $g - 2$/EDM experiment aims to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly $a_{\mu} = (g -2) / 2 ~ $ and the muon electric dipole moment (EDM) $d_{\mu}$. The target sensitivity for $a_{\mu}$ is a statistical uncertainty of $450…
A permanent electric dipole moment of fundamental spin-1/2 particles violates both parity (P) and time re- versal (T) symmetry, and hence, also charge-parity (CP) symmetry since there is no sign of CPT-violation. The search for a neutron…
We show, through modeling and simulation, that it is feasible to construct a storage ring that will store dense bunches of strong-field-seeking polar molecules at 30 m/s (kinetic energy of 2K) and hold them, for several minutes, against…
