  A significant fraction of the research effort at the Triangle Universities
Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL) focuses on weak interaction studies and searches for
physics beyond the Standard Model. One major effort is the development of a new
experimental technique to search for the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM)
that offers the potential for a factor of 100 increase in sensitivity over
existing measurements. The search for this moment has the potential to reveal
new sources of time reversal (T) and charge-conjugation-and-parity (CP)
violation and to challenge calculations that propose extensions to the Standard
Model. We provide a brief overview of the experiment as a whole and discuss the
work underway at TUNL as part of this effort.
