This event is part of the High Energy Experiment Seminar Series. Held in PRB595 at 3:30pm every other Thursday

Ultra-cold neutrons have been very important in devising experiments to better understand physics at its fundamental level in a way that complements current high energy physics programs. We will learn about UCNs, and their use in one such experiment that aims to search for the electric dipole moment of the neutron.
