Search for the electric dipole moment of strange and charm baryons at LHC
SELDOM explores a new experimental method to decisively boost the study of the electric dipole moment (EDM) and magnetic dipole moment (MDM) of baryons at the LHCb experiment at CERN. We will be able to guide the first search of charm baryons EDM: any observation would represent a signature of new physics. With the strange baryon EDM measurement, we will push forward the sensitivity on the Lambda baryon EDM to an unprecedented precision. Thus, we will set new constraints to extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. To date no search was performed for short-lived charm baryon EDM, as it must be determined studying the spin precession in intense magnetic fields before the decay -…
