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…

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…
