Precision measurement of radiative neutron \b{eta}-decay: methodology and systematic effects
J. S. Nico, R. Alarcon, M. J. Bales +18
In the Standard Model the free neutron decays to a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino along with a continuous spectrum of photons. In 2016 the RDK II collaboration reported o…
Environmental Stabilization of Perfect-Crystal Neutron Interferometry Using a Large Vacuum Chamber with Cryogenic Sample Access
Robert Valdillez, David G. Cory, Robert W. Haun +9
Perfect-crystal neutron interferometry has been a useful tool in measuring nuclear-interactions, probing fundamental physics, and exploring quantum phenomenon. Historically, neutro…
Detection of molecular hydrogen in a neutron beam lifetime experiment
J. Caylor, R. Biswas, B. Crawford +10
One method of determining the free neutron lifetime involves the absolute counting of neutrons and trapped decay protons. In such experiments, a cold neutron beam traverses a segme…
Spectroscopic measurements and models of energy deposition in the substrate of quantum circuits by natural ionizing radiation
Joseph W. Fowler, Paul Szypryt, Raymond Bunker +16
Naturally occurring background radiation is a source of correlated decoherence events in superconducting qubits that will challenge error-correction schemes. To characterize the ra…
Fundamental Neutron Physics: a White Paper on Progress and Prospects in the US
R. Alarcon, A. Aleksandrova, S. Baeßler +88
Fundamental neutron physics, combining precision measurements and theory, probes particle physics at short range with reach well beyond the highest energies probed by the LHC. Sign…
Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrons, and Neutrinos (FSNN): Whitepaper for the 2023 NSAC Long Range Plan
B. Acharya, C. Adams, A. A. Aleksandrova +176
This whitepaper presents the research priorities decided on by attendees of the 2022 Town Meeting for Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrons and Neutrinos, which took place December 13-1…
Quantum Information Science and Technology for Nuclear Physics. Input into U.S. Long-Range Planning, 2023
Douglas Beck, Joseph Carlson, Zohreh Davoudi +98
In preparation for the 2023 NSAC Long Range Plan (LRP), members of the Nuclear Science community gathered to discuss the current state of, and plans for further leveraging opportun…
Comments on Systematic Effects in the NIST Beam Neutron Lifetime Experiment
F. E. Wietfeldt, R. Biswas, J. Caylor +10
We discuss issues raised by Serebrov, et al. in a recent paper regarding systematic effects in the beam neutron lifetime experiment performed at NIST. We show that these effects we…
A Comment on "The possible explanation of neutron lifetime beam anomaly" by A. P. Serebrov, et al
F. E. Wietfeldt, R. Biswas, R. W. Haun +10
We comment on a recent manuscript by A. P. Serebrov, et al. regarding residual gas charge exchange in the beam neutron lifetime experiment
High Efficiency Positron Accumulation for High-Precision Measurements
S. Fogwell Hoogerheide, J. C. Dorr, E. Novitski +1
Positrons are accumulated within a Penning trap designed to make more precise measurements of the positron and electron magnetic moments. The retractable radioactive source used is…
Cavity Control of a Single-Electron Quantum Cyclotron:\\Measuring the Electron Magnetic Moment
D. Hanneke, S. Fogwell Hoogerheide, G. Gabrielse
Measurements with a one-electron quantum cyclotron determine the electron magnetic moment, given by , and the fine struct…
