Characterization of inverted coaxial Ge detectors in GERDA for future double- decay experiments

GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +108

Neutrinoless double- decay of Ge is searched for with germanium detectors where source and detector of the decay are identical. For the success of future experiments it i…

Measurement of the permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron

C. Abel, S. Afach, N. J. Ayres +81

We present the result of an experiment to measure the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron at the Paul Scherrer Institute using Ramsey's method of separated oscillating magn…

Optically Pumped Cs Magnetometers Enabling a High-Sensitivity Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment

C. Abel, S. Afach, N. J. Ayres +57

An array of sixteen laser-pumped scalar Cs magnetometers was part of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) experiment taking data at the Paul Scherrer Institute in 2015 and 201…

nEDM experiment at PSI: data-taking strategy and sensitivity of the dataset

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +40

We report on the strategy used to optimize the sensitivity of our search for a neutron electric dipole moment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. Measurements were made upon ultracold…

Magnetic field uniformity in neutron electric dipole moment experiments

C. Abel, N. Ayres, T. Baker +53

Magnetic field uniformity is of the utmost importance in experiments to measure the electric dipole moment of the neutron. A general parametrization of the magnetic field in terms…

Demonstration of sensitivity increase in mercury free-spin-precession magnetometers due to laser-based readout for neutron electric dipole moment searches

G. Ban, G. Bison, K. Bodek +31

We report on a laser based Hg co-magnetometer deployed in an experiment searching for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron. We demonstrate a more than five tim…
