Environmental Stabilization of Perfect-Crystal Neutron Interferometry Using a Large Vacuum Chamber with Cryogenic Sample Access
Robert Valdillez, David G. Cory, Robert W. Haun +9
Perfect-crystal neutron interferometry has been a useful tool in measuring nuclear-interactions, probing fundamental physics, and exploring quantum phenomenon. Historically, neutro…
From Commissioning to Precision Data-Taking: Resolving Operational Challenges in the Nab Detector Systems
L. J. Broussard, H. Acharya, R. Alarcon +36
Our understanding of the weak mixing of quarks, described by the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa (CKM) matrix, currently presents an anomaly. Thanks to major strides in both theory and e…
Characterization of Low-energy Ionization Signals in Silicon Detectors for the Nab Experiment
R. J. Taylor, August Mendelsohn, Arlee Shelby +20
The Nab (Neutron a b) experiment is designed to measure the beta-antineutrino angular correlation in free neutron decay with an ultimate precision goal of 0.1%, providing input…
A next-generation inverse-geometry spallation-driven ultracold neutron source
K. K. H. Leung, G. Muhrer, T. Hügle +7
The physics model of a next-generation spallation-driven high-current ultracold neutron (UCN) source capable of delivering an extracted UCN rate of around an-order-of-magnitude hig…
Solid deuterium surface degradation at ultracold neutron sources
A. Anghel, T. L. Bailey, G. Bison +27
Solid deuterium (sD_2) is used as an efficient converter to produce ultracold neutrons (UCN). It is known that the sD_2 must be sufficiently cold, of high purity and mostly in its…
