Abstract

To investigate beyond the standard model physics the NL-eEDM collaboration will perform a measurement on the electric dipole moment of the electron using BaF molecules. In order to achieve a high precision on this measurement multiple stages will be used to prepare these BaF molecules for this measurement. In one of these stages a traveling-wave Stark decelerator will be used to slow down these molecules. In this thesis the process of reassembling and upgrading of this decelerator for the experiment is documented. Possible decreases in performance due to misalignment are investigated with simulations. And its performance is investigated after it was coupled to a cryogenic source.
