In-situ measurement of the velocity spectrum of ultracold neutrons and its evolution using an oscillating detector
D. Rozpedzik, K. Bodek, K. Kirch +5
Ultracold neutrons (UCNs) are used in experiments investigating fundamental interactions, testing the Standard Model of particle physics and searching for phenomena beyond it. Know…
Search for ultralight axion dark matter in a side-band analysis of a 199Hg free-spin precession signal
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +35
Ultra-low-mass axions are a viable dark matter candidate and may form a coherently oscillating classical field. Nuclear spins in experiments on Earth might couple to this oscillati…
Characterization of ultracold neutron production in thin solid deuterium films at the PSI Ultracold Neutron source
G. Bison, B. Blau, W. Chen +13
We determined the ultracold neutron (UCN) production rate by superthermal conversion in the solid deuterium (sD) moderator of the UCN source at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI…
Measurement of the Parity-Odd Angular Distribution of Gamma Rays From Polarized Neutron Capture on Cl
N. Fomin, R. Alarcon, L. Alonzi +61
We report a measurement of two energy-weighted gamma cascade angular distributions from polarized slow neutron capture on the Cl nucleus, one parity-odd correlation propor…
The `n2EDM MSR' -- a very large magnetically shielded room with an exceptional performance for fundamental physics measurements
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +41
We present the magnetically shielded room (MSR) for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute which features an interior cubic volume with each side of length 2.92m, thus…
