Abstract

Electric-dipole-moment experiments based on spin-precession measurements of stored atoms or neutrons are generally considered to be immune from the effects of v×E or motional magnetic fields. This is because the average velocity for such systems is zero. We show here that the fluctuating field associated with the random velocity, heretofore not considered, can in fact lead to sizable systematic effects.
