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…

First Measurement of the Neutron -Asymmetry with Ultracold Neutrons

R. W. Pattie

We report the first measurement of angular correlation parameters in neutron -decay using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN). We utilize UCN with energies below about 200 neV, w…

Demonstration of a solid deuterium source of ultra-cold neutrons

A. Saunders, J. M. Anaya, T. J. Bowles +26

Ultra-cold neutrons (UCN), neutrons with energies low enough to be confined by the Fermi potential in material bottles, are playing an increasing role in measurements of fundamenta…

An Apparatus to Control and Monitor the Para-D2 Concentration in a Solid Deuterium, Superthermal Source of Ultra-cold Neutrons

C. -Y. Liu, S. K. Lamoreaux, A. Saunders +2

Controlling and measuring the concentration of para-D2 is an essential step toward realizing solid deuterium as an intense ultra-cold neutron (UCN) source. To this end, we implemen…

Measurement of parity-nonconserving rotation of neutron spin in the 0.734-eV p-wave resonance of

T. Haseyama, K. Asahi, J. D. Bowman +15

The parity nonconserving spin rotation of neutrons in the 0.734-eV p-wave resonance of was measured with the neutron transmission method. Two optically polarized …

Measurements of ultracold neutron lifetimes in solid deuterium

C. L. Morris, J. M. Anaya, T. J. Bowles +24

We present the first measurements of the survival time of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) in solid deuterium SD2. This critical parameter provides a fundamental limitation to the effecti…
