The cross section of the primary reaction in a tokamak fusion reactor, D + T --> α + n, would be increased by 50% if the fuels were fully polarized along the local magnetic field. In a large-scale fusion reactor such as ITER, the power gain could be as much as 75% due to increased alpha heating. Such a boost would be a significant step towards establishing a burning plasma. The...
The first direct measurement of charged particle Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) was performed by the Jülich Electrical Dipole Moment Investigations (JEDI) collaboration. These investigations were carried out using polarized deuteron beams at the COoler SYnchrotron (COSY) located at the Forschungszentrum Jülich in Germany. The search for an EDM demands high precision measurements, separating the...
A versatile solution is being pursued for the challenging magnetic problem of producing internal fields in compact spaces. It is a promising tool for trapping fields around a polarized target, while shielding out external fields from spectrometers, and in addiction, for generating holding fields for accumulation and transport of polarized fuel in nuclear fusion tests.
The bulk...
The matter-antimatter asymmetry may be explained through CP-violation by observing a permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of subatomic particles. An advanced approach to measure the EDM of charged particles is to apply a unique method of "Frozen spin" on a polarized beam in an accelerator. To increase the experimental precision step by step and to study systematic effects, the EDM experiment...
