SUMMARY:Searching for physics beyond the standard model: the neutron e
 lectric dipole moment experiment at the TUM\, NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/A
 stro/Cosmo) Forum\, Michael Marino\, Technical University of Munich
DESCRIPTION:The discovery of a neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) w
 ould provide an unambiguous indication of time violation in a fundamen
 tal system\, and address one of the Sakharov conditions (CP-symmetry v
 iolation) necessary to explain the observed matter/antimatter asymmetr
 y in the universe.  Current experimental limitations on the nEDM are r
 oughly 6 orders of magnitude above the Standard Model (SM) prediction 
 and so searches for the nEDM provide powerful tests of physics beyond 
 the SM. The nEDM experiment currently under construction at the Techni
 sche Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) is seeking to improve this limit up t
 o 2 orders of magnitude.  A contextual overview of the relevant physic
 s will be given\, and developments in the TUM nEDM experiment\, includ
 ing the recent installation of a world-record magnetically shielded ro
 om\, will be presented.
