Storage of ultracold neutrons in the UCN$\tau$ magneto-gravitational trap

D. J. Salvat, E. R. Adamek, D. Barlow +29

The UCN$\tau$ experiment is designed to measure the lifetime ${\tau }_n$ of the free neutron by trapping ultracold neutrons (UCN) in a magneto-gravitational trap. An asymmetric bowl-shape…
