Proof of principle experiment at COSY: („precursor experiment“) Highest EDM sensitivity shall be achieved with a new type of machine: An electrostatic storage ring, where: Centripetal force produced primarily by electric fields Electric field couples to EDM and provides required sensitivity (< 1028 e cm) In this environment, magnetic fields mean evil (since 𝜇 is large) Idea behind proof of principle experiment with novel RF Wien filter ( 𝐸 × 𝐵 ): In magnetic machine, particle spins (protons, deuterons) precess about stable spin axis (≅ direction of magnetic fields in dipole magnets) Use RF device operating on some harmonic of the spin precession frequency: Phase lock between spin precession and device RF Allows to accumulate EDM effect as functionof time in cycle (~ 1000 s) Show that conventional storage ring usable for first direct EDM measurement 11.
