Description

The magnetic and electric dipole moments (MDM and EDM) of charm baryons remain unmeasured and offer a unique window into physics beyond the Standard Model. In particular, a nonzero EDM would signal new sources of CP violation, potentially linked to the baryon asymmetry of the universe.

The proposed ALADDIN experiment at the LHC aims to perform the first direct measurement of these moments. By accessing the charm sector, ALADDIN explores a largely untested regime where non-perturbative QCD effects and new CP-violating mechanisms may emerge.

This talk will outline the physics motivations behind the measurement, its relevance to cosmology, and recent experimental progress toward realizing this program.
