Improved neutron lifetime measurement with UCN

F. M. Gonzalez, E. M. Fries, C. Cude-Woods +41

We report an improved measurement of the free neutron lifetime using the UCN apparatus at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. We counted a total of approximately $38\…

Improved limits on Fierz Interference using asymmetry measurements from the UCNA experiment

Xuan Sun, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +56

The Ultracold Neutron Asymmetry (UCNA) experiment was designed to measure the -decay asymmetry parameter, , for free neutron decay. In the experiment, polarized ultracold n…

Final results for the neutron -asymmetry parameter from the UCNA experiment

B. Plaster, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +91

The UCNA experiment was designed to measure the neutron -asymmetry parameter using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN). UCN produced via downscattering in solid deuterium w…

Measurement of the neutron lifetime using a magneto-gravitational trap

Nathan Callahan

Precision measurements of the free neutron lifetime , when combined with measurements of the axial vector form factor, can be used to test unitarity of the CKM matrix. Non-uni…

Search for dark matter decay of the free neutron from the UCNA experiment: n

X. Sun, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +57

It has been proposed recently that a previously unobserved neutron decay branch to a dark matter particle () could account for the discrepancy in the neutron lifetime observed i…

New result for the neutron -asymmetry parameter from UCNA

M. A. -P. Brown, E. B. Dees, E. Adamek +56

The neutron -decay asymmetry parameter defines the correlation between the spin of the neutron and the momentum of the emitted electron, which determines $λ=\frac{g_{A}}{g…

Measurement of the neutron lifetime using an asymmetric magneto- gravitational trap and in situ detection

R. W. Pattie, N. B. Callahan, C. Cude-Woods +35

The precise value of the mean neutron lifetime, , plays an important role in nuclear and particle physics and cosmology. It is a key input for predicting the ratio of protons…
