Mapping of the magnetic field to correct systematic effects in a neutron electric dipole moment experiment

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +50

Experiments dedicated to the measurement of the electric dipole moment of the neutron require outstanding control of the magnetic field uniformity. The neutron electric dipole mome…

A search for neutron to mirror-neutron oscillations

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

It has been proposed that there could be a mirror copy of the standard model particles, restoring the parity symmetry in the weak interaction on the global level. Oscillations betw…

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…

PicoTesla absolute field readings with a hybrid 3He/87Rb magnetometer

Christopher Abel, Georg Bison, W. Clark Griffith +10

We demonstrate the use of a hybrid He / Rb magnetometer to measure absolute magnetic fields in the pT range. The measurements were undertaken by probing time-dependent…

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…
