Results ~ present status
Yield of 210Fr ~ 4.1×104 atoms/sec
Fr yield ~104 Fr+/sec achieved ~ but not stable Fr extraction efficiency : < 0.3 % ~ quite small…What should be modified :
① Oven material → sensitive to the work function ⇒ use material chemically stable② Temperature of the oven and target ~ low at present → ionization efficiency low ③ extraction electrode ~ optimize the shape and structure with simulation

Summary
Electron EDM Nuclei EDM
Search for e EDM using cooled radioactive atoms is under preparation.Fr has the largest enhancement factor for e EDM.Gong to use laser cooling and trap to improve coherence time.To achieve high detection sensitivity for EDM measurement---need high intensity Fr.Developing surface ionizer and beam transport system ---close to SUNY and LNL of production rate.Need more improvement on Fr ion source and primary beam, transport etc,
In 3 years aim to finish the preparation of all apparatus and start measurement.
Establish the next generation technics to search for EDM using cooled radioactive atoms.Promote search for EDM in lepton and hadron by using radioactive atoms with large enhancement factor.
