The electric dipole moment challenge
The electric dipole moment challenge (EDM) measures a non-zero proton EDM value and this book suggests how the challenge can be met. Any measurably large proton EDM would violate the standard model. The method to be employed uses an intense beam of "frozen spin" protons circulating for hour-long ...
