Polarized cold-neutron reflectometry at JRR-3/MINE2 for the development of ultracold-neutron spin analyzers for a neutron EDM experiment at TRIUMF
Takashi Higuchi, Hiroaki Akatsuka, Alexis Brossard +18
The neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) is a sensitive probe for currently undiscovered sources of charge-parity symmetry violation. As part of the TRIUMF Ultracold Advanced Neutr…
Characterization of electroless nickel-phosphorus plating for ultracold-neutron storage
H. Akatsuka, T. Andalib, B. Bell +51
Electroless nickel plating is an established industrial process that provides a robust and relatively low-cost coating suitable for transporting and storing ultracold neutrons (UCN…
The Precision nEDM Measurement with UltraCold Neutrons at TRIUMF
Ryohei Matsumiya, Hiroaki Akatsuka, Chris P. Bidinosti +45
The TRIUMF Ultra-Cold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) collaboration aims at a precision neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) measurement with an uncertainty of $10^{-27}\,e\cdot\mathrm{c…
Study of Thin Iron Films for Polarization Analysis of Ultracold Neutrons
Hiroaki Akatsuka, Takashi Higuchi, Sean Hansen-Romu +10
The TUCAN (TRIUMF Ultra-Cold Advanced Neutron) collaboration aims to search for the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) with unprecedented precision. One of the essential element…
A fast-switching magnet serving a spallation-driven ultracold neutron source
S. Ahmed, E. Altiere, T. Andalib +47
A fast-switching, high-repetition-rate magnet and power supply have been developed for and operated at TRIUMF, to deliver a proton beam to the new ultracold neutron (UCN) facility.…
A beamline for fundamental neutron physics at TRIUMF
S. Ahmed, T. Andalib, M. J. Barnes +44
This article describes the new primary proton beamline 1U at TRIUMF. The purpose of this beamline is to produce ultracold neutrons (UCN) for fundamental-physics experiments. It del…
First ultracold neutrons produced at TRIUMF
S. Ahmed, E. Altiere, T. Andalib +50
We installed a source for ultracold neutrons at a new, dedicated spallation target at TRIUMF. The source was originally developed in Japan and uses a superfluid-helium converter co…
