Abstract

New measurements of the electric dipole moment muons of both charges have been made in the Muon Storage Ring at CERN. The values found are D_{mu +}=(8.6+or-4.5)*10^-19 e cm D_{mu -}=(0.8+or-4.3)*10^-19 e cm (errors are of one standard deviation). It is concluded, at 95% confidence level, that mod D_mu mod -18 e cm.
