Improved shot noise limit of the YbF EDM experiment

The electron is predicted to have a small electric dipole moment (EDM). This fundamental property characterises the distortion of the electron's almost perfectly spherical charge distribution. The size of this distortion (de) is intimately connected to the breaking of time reversal symmetry (T)...
