Generating a highly uniform magnetic field inside the magnetically shielded room of the n2EDM experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +63
We present a coil system designed to generate a highly uniform magnetic field for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. It consists of a main coil and a set of…
Achieving ultra-low and -uniform residual magnetic fields in a very large magnetically shielded room for fundamental physics experiments
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +47
High-precision searches for an electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) require stable and uniform magnetic field environments. We present the recent achievements of degaussing…
The design of the n2EDM experiment
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, L. Bienstman +58
We present the design of a next-generation experiment, n2EDM, currently under construction at the ultracold neutron source at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) with the aim of carr…
Characterization of magnetic field noise in the ARIADNE source mass rotor
Nancy Aggarwal, Allard Schnabel, Jens Voigt +19
ARIADNE is a nuclear-magnetic-resonance-based experiment that will search for novel axion-induced spin-dependent interactions between an unpolarized source mass rotor and a nearby…
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…
nEDM experiment at PSI: data-taking strategy and sensitivity of the dataset
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +40
We report on the strategy used to optimize the sensitivity of our search for a neutron electric dipole moment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. Measurements were made upon ultracold…
The n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +45
We present the new spectrometer for the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) search at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), called n2EDM. The setup is at room temperature in vacuum…
A large-scale magnetic shield with 10^6 damping at mHz frequencies
I. Altarev, M. Bales, D. H. Beck +16
We present a magnetically shielded environment with a damping factor larger than one million at the mHz frequency regime and an extremely low field and gradient over an extended vo…
Dynamic stabilization of the magnetic field surrounding the neutron electric dipole moment spectrometer at the Paul Scherrer Institute
S. Afach, G. Bison, K. Bodek +34
The Surrounding Field Compensation (SFC) system described in this work is installed around the four-layer Mu-metal magnetic shield of the neutron electric dipole moment spectromete…
A magnetically shielded room with ultra low residual field and gradient
I. Altarev, E. Babcock, D. Beck +29
A versatile and portable magnetically shielded room with a field of (700 \pm 200) pT within a central volume of 1m x 1m x 1m and a field gradient less than 300 pT/m is described. T…
Copper coated carbon fiber reinforced plastics for high and ultra high vacuum applications
F. Burri, M. Fertl, P. Feusi +9
We have used copper-coated carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CuCFRP) for the construction of high and ultra-high vacuum recipients. The vacuum performance is found to be comparable…
