Precision pulse shape simulation for proton detection at the Nab experiment
Leendert Hayen, Jin Ha Choi, Dustin Combs +22
The Nab experiment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA, aims to measure the beta-antineutrino angular correlation following neutron decay to an anticipated precision of appro…
First observation of cyclotron radiation from MeV-scale following nuclear beta decay
W. Byron, H. Harrington, R. J. Taylor +30
We present an apparatus for detection of cyclotron radiation that allows a frequency-based beta energy determination in the 5 keV to 5 MeV range, characteristic of nuclear beta dec…
Gas electron tracking detector for beta decay experiments
D. Rozpedzik, L. De Keukeleere, K. Bodek +4
For identification and 3D-tracking of low-energy electrons a new type of gas-based detector was designed that minimizes scattering and energy loss. The current version of the detec…
Fill and dump measurement of the neutron lifetime using an asymmetric magneto-gravitational trap
C. Cude-Woods, F. M. Gonzalez, E. M. Fries +39
The past two decades have yielded several new measurements and reanalyses of older measurements of the neutron lifetime. These have led to a 4.4 standard deviation discrepancy betw…
Influence of the recoil-order and radiative correction on the beta decay correlation coefficients in mirror decays
S. Vanlangendonck, N. Severijns, L. Hayen +1
Measurements of the beta decay correlation coefficients in nuclear decay aim for a precision below and theoretical predictions should follow this trend. In this work, the inf…
Pion-induced radiative corrections to neutron beta-decay
Vincenzo Cirigliano, Jordy de Vries, Leendert Hayen +2
We compute the electromagnetic corrections to neutron beta decay using a low-energy hadronic effective field theory. We identify and compute new radiative corrections arising from…
