SAKHAROV'S EXPLANATION OF THE ASYMMETRIC UNIVERSE AND THE SEARCH FOR THE NEUTRON ELECTRIC DIPOLE MOMENT

Yuri F. Orlov Cornell University 24 October 2008

International Conference, 40 Years after Andrei Sakharov's Reflections on Progress, Peaceful Coexistence and Intellectual Freedom: Russia Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. 24-25 October 2008. Cambridge, Mass. Panel 3: Sakharov the Physicist.

Timeline of the universe from the Big Bang to now. Rapid inflation during the first second

was first proposed 25

years ago and is now supported by the new results from WMAP.

  • Use 199Hg co-magnetometer to sample the variation of

B-field in the UCN storage cell

  • Limited by low UCN flux of- 5 UCN/cm3

A higher UCN flux can be obtained by using the "superthermal" down-scattering process in superfluid He
