چکیده
We discuss the proposal of Freedman, Ringo and Dombeck [1] to search for the neutron electric dipole moment using the acceleration of neutrons in an inhomogeneous electric field followed by amplification of the resulting displacement by several methods involving spin independent interactions (gravity) or reflection from curved (spin independent) mirrors.

Comment on “A proposed method for measuring the electric dipole moment of the neutron using acceleration in an electric field gradient and ultracold neutron interferometry ”, II
We discuss the proposal of Freedman, Ringo and Dombeck [1] to search for the neutron electric dipole moment by use of the acceleration of ultracold neutrons in an inhomogeneous electric field followed by amplification of the resulting displacement by several methods involving spin independent interactions (gravity) or reflection from curved (spin independent) mirrors. We show that the proposed ...
متن کاملForces on Magnetic Dipoles
Deduce expressions for the force on a permanent Ampèrian magnetic dipole with momentmA (due to a loop of electrical current), and for the force on a permanent Gilbertian magnetic dipolemG (due to a pair of opposite magnetic charges), when the dipoles are (instantaneously at rest in an external electromagnetic field. Experiments have been performed to determine whether a neutron [6] has an Ampèr...
متن کاملThe Neutron Electric Dipole Moment using Nf=2+1+1 twisted mass fermions
We evaluate the neutron electric dipole moment |~ dN | using lattice QCD techniques. The gauge configurations analyzed are produced by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration using Nf=2+1+1 twisted mass fermions at one value of the lattice spacing of a ≃ 0.082 fm and a light quark mass corresponding to mπ ≃ 373 MeV. Our approach to extract the neutron electric dipole moment is based on the calc...
متن کاملMotional spin relaxation in large electric fields
We discuss the precession of spin-polarized ultracold neutrons UCNs and He atoms in uniform and static magnetic and electric fields and calculate the spin relaxation effects from motional v E magnetic fields. Particle motion in an electric field creates a motional v E magnetic field, which when combined with collisions produces variations of the total magnetic field and results in spin relaxati...
متن کاملSearch for an electric dipole moment of the neutron
The result of a search for the electric dipole moment of the neutron is presented. A short review of past experimental work and theoretical predictions introduces a discussion of the experimental method used in, and the results obtained by, the present work. The weighted mean of three separate groups of data gives (+0.4 + 1.5) X 10 "cm for the neutron's electric dipole moment. We conclude that ...
