muEDM/(g-2) magnet workshop for PSI/JPARC

15 Jun 2026, 09:00 → 16 Jun 2026, 16:15 Europe/Zurich

PSI west

Philipp Schmidt-Wellenburg (PSI - Paul Scherrer Institut), Rebecca Riccioli (PSI - Paul Scherrer Institut)

This 2-days workshop at PSI is dedicated to facilitate the scientific exchange between the researchers working with HIPA and JPARC, both preparing the experiment to measure the Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of muons. The workshop focuses on one of the key components which is a large aperture and high field solenoid producing the background field for the experiment. 

The registration fee is 100 CHF and it includes social dinner and coffee breaks (the invited guests have not to pay the fee)
