14:10 The neutron EDM and CryoEDM experiments at ILL

An experimental search for a neutron EDM has been carried out at the Institut Laue Langevin (ILL) Grenoble. It used a "cohabiting'' atomic-mercury magnetometer to measure and compensate for the magnetic field fluctuations. The experiment has been taking data over a period of six years and has subsequently been running for one year devoted to systematic studies related to the experiment. These systematic studies have now been completed. The next-generation experiment to measure the neutron EDM, in which ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) are produced and stored in superfluid He-4 (superthermal source) is under construction at ILL H53 beam and first data taking runs will start in 2006.

14:35 Towards a neutron EDM experiment at the PSI ultra-cold neutron source

An improved search for the neutron electric dipole moment is planned for the new high intensity UCN source at PSI.

15:00 The deuteron EDM at the 10^-29 e cm level with the Storage Ring Method

In the Storage Ring Resonant-EDM Method several ions, like the deuteron, proton, 3^He, etc. can be probed in a sensitive way. The deuteron EDM at 10^-29 e cm would be the best sensitivity experiment regarding theta_qcd, quark and quark_colour EDM over present or planned experiments.

15:20 Higgs mediated LFV

We study the phenomenology of Higgs-mediated lepton flavour violation, both in tau decays and in deviations from e-mu lepton flavour universality in purely leptonic kaon decays.

15:40 Seesaw in SO(10) and split SUSY

Models with radiatively generated neutrino mass favour a split supersymmetric scenario with a very large sfermion mass. I will describe the simplest flavour sector, that is potentially realistic, show the main predictions and where it could fail.

15:50 CP effects in tau decays and some of tau production processes: aspects

Observables for CP-like quantities require analysis of physics objects defined often with the help of multiple variable observables. To this end simultaneous inclusion of theoretical aspects of studied distributions including backgrounds options from the theory and selection criteria is indispensable. TAUOLA and its universal interface was found to be useful for such purposes. Program and its applications will be revieved.
