Abstract

We have completed an improved precision measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment using trapped Formula Presented in rotating bias fields. We report on the accuracy evaluation of this measurement, describing the mechanisms behind our systematic shifts. Our systematic uncertainty is reduced by a factor of 30 compared to the first generation of this measurement [ Cairncross Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 153001 (2017)0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.119.153001 ]. Our combined statistical and systematic accuracy is improved by a factor of 2 relative to any previous measurement [ Nature (London) 562, 355 (2018)0028-0836 10.1038/s41586-018-0599-8 ].
