New high-sensitivity search for neutron to mirror-neutron oscillations at the PSI UCN source
N. J. Ayres, Z. Berezhiani, G. Bison +19
In a search for potential signals of neutron (n) to mirror-neutron (n') oscillations, a collaboration centered at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) investigated the remaining param…
Measurement of the neutron incoherent scattering length of Hg using stored ultracold neutrons
C. Abel, K. Bodek, E. Chanel +35
We present the first direct measurement of the neutron incoherent scattering length of Hg. The measurement was performed with the Ramsey apparatus of the neutron electric…
Final Results of GERDA on the Two-Neutrino Double- Decay Half-Life of Ge
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, A. Alexander +116
We present the measurement of the two-neutrino double- decay rate of Ge performed with the GERDA Phase II experiment. With a subset of the entire GERDA exposure, 11.8 kg$…
Search for an interaction mediated by axion-like particles with ultracold neutrons at the PSI
N. J. Ayres, G. Bison, K. Bodek +44
We report on a search for a new, short-range, spin-dependent interaction using a modified version of the experimental apparatus used to measure the permanent neutron electric dipol…
Oscillations: Sensitivity of a first UCN beam experiment
G. Ban, J. Chen, P. -J. Chiu +11
Oscillations of the neutron into a hidden sector particle are processes predicted in various Standard Model extensions. This extra channel for neutron disappearance has not been te…
Johnson-Nyquist Noise Effects in Neutron Electric-Dipole-Moment Experiments
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +37
Magnetic Johnson-Nyquist noise (JNN) originating from metal electrodes, used to create a static electric field in neutron electric-dipole-moment (nEDM) experiments, may limit the s…
