An Experiment to Measure the Electron's Electric Dipole Moment Using an Ultracold Beam of YbF Molecules

The fact that more matter than antimatter has been produced in the early stages of the universe is unexplained and known as the matter-antimatter-asymmetry problem [1]. One precondition is the combined violation of charge conjugation and parity (CP-violation) which is too small in the Standard Model. In almost all theories, CP-violation is also a precondition for the electron to have an electric dipole moment (de). [more]
