An Improved Neutron Electric Dipole Moment Experiment
M. Kuźniak, I. Altarev, G. Ban +41
A new measurement of the neutron EDM, using Ramsey's method of separated oscillatory fields, is in preparation at the new high intensity source of ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) at the…
A Circulating Hydrogen Ultra-High Purification System for the MuCap Experiment
V. A. Ganzha, P. A. Kravtsov, O. E. Maev +12
The MuCap experiment is a high-precision measurement of the rate for the basic electroweak process of muon capture, mu- + p -> n + nu . The experimental approach is based on an act…
Measurement of the Rate of Muon Capture in Hydrogen Gas and Determination of the Proton's Pseudoscalar Coupling
V. A. Andreev, T. I. Banks, T. A. Case +33
The rate of nuclear muon capture by the proton has been measured using a new experimental technique based on a time projection chamber operating in ultra-clean, deuterium-depleted…
Precise Measurement of Muon Capture on the Proton
P. Kammel, V. A. Andreev, D. V. Balin +38
The aim of the MuCap experiment is a 1% measurement of the singlet capture rate Lambda_S for the basic electro-weak reaction mu + p -> n + nu_mu. This observable is sensitive to th…
