Stochastic modeling and survival analysis of marginally trapped neutrons for a magnetic trapping neutron lifetime experiment
K. J. Coakley, M. S. Dewey, M. G. Huber +8
In a variety of neutron lifetime experiments, in addition to decay, neutrons can be lost by other mechanisms including wall losses. Failure to account for these other loss mech…
High-resolution, vacuum-ultraviolet absorption spectrum of boron trifluoride
Patrick P. Hughes, Amy Beasten, Jacob C. McComb +6
In the course of investigations of thermal neutron detection based on mixtures of BF with other gases, knowledge was required of the photoabsorption cross sections of $^…
Noble gas excimer scintillation following neutron capture in boron thin films
Jacob C. McComb, Michael A. Coplan, Mohamed al-Sheikhly +3
Far-ultraviolet (FUV) scintillation signals have been measured in heavy noble gases (argon, krypton, xenon) following boron-neutron capture (B()Li) in B thin…
A New Limit on Time-Reversal Violation in Beta Decay
H. P. Mumm, T. E. Chupp, R. L. Cooper +10
We report the results of an improved determination of the triple correlation that can be used to limit possible time-reversal invariance in the beta de…
Far-ultraviolet signatures of the 3He(n,tp) reaction in noble gas mixtures
Patrick P. Hughes, Michael A. Coplan, Alan K. Thompson +2
Previous work showed that the 3He(n,tp) reaction in a cell of 3He at atmospheric pressure generated tens of far-ultraviolet photons per reacted neutron. Here we report amplificatio…
emiT: an apparatus to test time reversal invariance in polarized neutron decay
H. P. Mumm, A. Garcia, L. Grout +20
We describe an apparatus used to measure the triple-correlation term (\D \hatσ_n\cdot p_e\times p_ν) in the beta-decay of polarized neutrons. The \D-coefficient is sensitive to pos…
