The Electric Dipole Moment and PNC Spin Rotation of the Neutron

这笔给华盛顿大学一名教员的拨款将用于支持在劳厄-朗格万高通量反应堆研究所使用冷中子束对中子电偶极矩的测量的扩展。该测量对于确定宇称和时间反转对称性破坏的极限具有重要意义。此外，还将通过测量液氦靶中的宇称非守恒中子自旋来研究中子与氦核的宇称违反相互作用。

This grant to a University of Washington faculty member will support an extension of measurements of the neutron electric dipole moment using cold neutron beams at the Institut von Laue-Langevan High Flux Reactor. The measurement is of fundamental importance in establishing limits to parity and time reversal symmetry violation. In addition, measurements will be undertaken to study the parity violating interaction of neutrons with helium nuclei by measuring the parity nonconserving neutron spin rotation in a liquid helium target.
