Limit on the Fierz Interference Term b from a Measurement of the Beta Asymmetry in Neutron Decay
Heiko Saul, Christoph Roick, Hartmut Abele +7
In the standard model of particle physics, the weak interaction is described by vector and axial-vector couplings only. Non-zero scalar or tensor interactions would imply an additi…
Towards a first measurement of the free neutron bound beta decay detecting hydrogen atoms at a throughgoing beamtube in a high flux reactor
Wolfgang Schott, Erwin Gutsmiedl, Karina Bernert +9
In addition to the common 3-body decay of the neutron there should exist an effective 2-body subset with the electron and proton forming a Hydrog…
Design of the Magnet System of the Neutron Decay Facility PERC
Xiangzun Wang, Carmen Ziener, Hartmut Abele +27
The PERC (Proton and Electron Radiation Channel) facility is currently under construction at the research reactor FRM II, Garching. It will serve as an intense and clean source of…
Undetected Electron Backscattering in PERKEO III
Christoph Roick, Heiko Saul, Hartmut Abele +1
The beta asymmetry in neutron beta decay is used to determine the ratio of axial-vector coupling to vector coupling most precisely. In electron spectroscopy, backscattering of elec…
Measurement of the Weak Axial-Vector Coupling Constant in the Decay of Free Neutrons Using a Pulsed Cold Neutron Beam
Bastian Märkisch, Holger Mest, Heiko Saul +8
We present a precision measurement of the axial-vector coupling constant in the decay of polarized free neutrons. For the first time, a pulsed cold neutron beam was used for…
