A New Cryogenic Apparatus to Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment
M. W. Ahmed, R. Alarcon, A. Aleksandrova +91
A cryogenic apparatus is described that enables a new experiment, nEDM@SNS, with a major improvement in sensitivity compared to the existing limit in the search for a neutron Elect…
The neutron electric dipole moment experiment at the Spallation Neutron Source
K. K. H. Leung, M. Ahmed, R. Alarcon +90
Novel experimental techniques are required to make the next big leap in neutron electric dipole moment experimental sensitivity, both in terms of statistics and systematic error co…
Monte Carlo Simulations of Trapped Ultracold Neutrons in the UCNτ Experiment
Nathan Callahan, Chen-Yu Liu, Francisco Gonzalez +37
In the UCNτ experiment, ultracold neutrons (UCN) are confined by magnetic fields and the Earth's gravitational field. Field-trapping mitigates the problem of UCN loss on material s…
Search for the Neutron Decay n X+ where X is a dark matter particle
Z. Tang, M. Blatnik, L. J. Broussard +21
In a recent paper submitted to Physical Review Letters, Fornal and Grinstein have suggested that the discrepancy between two different methods of neutron lifetime measurements, the…
