Description

The TRIUMF Ultracold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) collaboration has been developing a neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) spectrometer supplied by its high-intensity ultracold neutron (UCN) source. Our room-temperature Ramsey EDM spectrometer features a multilayer magnetically shielded room (MSR), a self-shielded $B_0$​ coil, and other subsystems designed to satisfy the requirements for an EDM experiment. The ultimate goal is to achieve a neutron EDM sensitivity of $10^{-27}$ $e$cm, following a staged approach that begins with a single-cell setup.
In recent years, significant progress has been made in the development of various subsystems, including the MSR, the coil systems, a Hg comagnetometer, distributed Cs magnetometers, and UCN spin analysers and detectors.

This presentation will provide an overview of these recent developments and introduce the presentations on each subsystem to be given during the workshop.
