Improved neutron lifetime measurement with UCN

F. M. Gonzalez, E. M. Fries, C. Cude-Woods +41

We report an improved measurement of the free neutron lifetime using the UCN apparatus at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. We counted a total of approximately $38\…

A New Cryogenic Apparatus to Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment

M. W. Ahmed, R. Alarcon, A. Aleksandrova +91

A cryogenic apparatus is described that enables a new experiment, nEDM@SNS, with a major improvement in sensitivity compared to the existing limit in the search for a neutron Elect…

Final results for the neutron -asymmetry parameter from the UCNA experiment

B. Plaster, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +91

The UCNA experiment was designed to measure the neutron -asymmetry parameter using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN). UCN produced via downscattering in solid deuterium w…

The neutron electric dipole moment experiment at the Spallation Neutron Source

K. K. H. Leung, M. Ahmed, R. Alarcon +90

Novel experimental techniques are required to make the next big leap in neutron electric dipole moment experimental sensitivity, both in terms of statistics and systematic error co…

A boron-coated CCD camera for direct detection of Ultracold Neutrons (UCN)

K. Kuk, C. Cude-Woods, C. R. Chavez +48

A new boron-coated CCD camera is described for direct detection of ultracold neutrons (UCN) through the capture reactions B (n,0)Li (6%) and B(n,1)$^7…

Search for dark matter decay of the free neutron from the UCNA experiment: n

X. Sun, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +57

It has been proposed recently that a previously unobserved neutron decay branch to a dark matter particle () could account for the discrepancy in the neutron lifetime observed i…
