Description

Searches for a nonzero neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) are probes
of new sources of time reversal symmetry violation and may give clues to
the puzzle of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe. This talk
will present an overview and status of the nEDM experiment under
development at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Using the
upgraded ultracold neutron source, the experiment targets a measurement
uncertainty of $10^{-27} e\text{ cm}$. Some of the findings during the present
commissioning of major components of the apparatus will be described.
