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…
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$…
A large 'Active Magnetic Shield' for a high-precision experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +48
We present a novel Active Magnetic Shield (AMS), designed and implemented for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The experiment will perform a high-sensitivity se…
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…
A search for neutron-to-hidden-neutron oscillations in a ultra-cold neutron beam
G. Ban, J. Chen, P. -J. Chiu +11
Models that postulate the existence of hidden sectors address contemporary questions, such as the source of baryogenesis and the nature of dark matter. Among the possible mixing pr…
Time-of-flight spectroscopy of ultracold neutrons at the PSI UCN source
G. Bison, W. Chen, P. -J. Chiu +9
The ultracold neutron (UCN) source at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) provides high intensities of storable neutrons for fundamental physics experiments. The neutron velocity spe…
