Description
The TUCAN EDM experiment aims to measure the neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) to a precision of $1\times 10^{-27}~e$cm, by making a precise measurement of the neutron precession frequency change in a parallel magnetic and electric field when the eletric field direction is inverted. To make this measurement a coil will be used to provide a homogeneous precession magnetic field of $B_0=1~\mu$T inside a magnetically shielded room. To maintain the ultra cold neutron polarization during the measurement cycle a very high magnetic field uniformity is required. I will describe the coil design, and how we plan to meet the magnetic requirements by being able to adjust the coil placements to submillimeter precision.
