On taming Moffatt-Kimura vortices of doom in the viscous case

Zoran Grujic

In this note we propose a two-layer viscous mechanism for preventing finite time singularity formation in the Moffatt-Kimura model of two counter-rotating vortex rings colliding at…

On persistence of spatial analyticity in the hyper-dissipative Navier-Stokes models

Aseel Farhat, Zoran Grujic

The goal of this note is to demonstrate that as soon as the hyper-diffusion exponent is greater than one, a class of finite time blow-up scenarios consistent with the analytic stru…

A search for neutron to mirror-neutron oscillations

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +40

It has been proposed that there could be a mirror copy of the standard model particles, restoring the parity symmetry in the weak interaction on the global level. Oscillations betw…

Data blinding for the nEDM experiment at PSI

N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +42

Psychological bias towards, or away from, a prior measurement or a theory prediction is an intrinsic threat to any data analysis. While various methods can be used to avoid the bia…

Statistical sensitivity of the nEDM apparatus at PSI to neutron mirror-neutron oscillations

C. Abel, N. Ayres, G. Bison +33

The neutron and its hypothetical mirror counterpart, a sterile state degenerate in mass, could spontaneously mix in a process much faster than the neutron -decay. Two groups hav…

Characterization of the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers to search for Exotic Physics (GNOME)

S. Afach, D. Budker, G. DeCamp +21

The Global Network of Optical Magnetometers to search for Exotic physics (GNOME) is a network of geographically separated, time-synchronized, optically pumped atomic magnetometers…

Demonstration of sensitivity increase in mercury free-spin-precession magnetometers due to laser-based readout for neutron electric dipole moment searches

G. Ban, G. Bison, K. Bodek +31

We report on a laser based Hg co-magnetometer deployed in an experiment searching for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron. We demonstrate a more than five tim…

A highly stable atomic vector magnetometer based on free spin precession

S. Afach, G. Ban, G. Bison +31

We present a magnetometer based on optically pumped Cs atoms that measures the magnitude and direction of a 1 T magnetic field. Multiple circularly polarized laser beams were us…

Observation of gravitationally induced vertical striation of polarized ultracold neutrons by spin-echo spectroscopy

S. Afach, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +45

We describe a spin-echo method for ultracold neutrons (UCNs) confined in a precession chamber and exposed to a magnetic field. We have demonstrated that the ana…

Measurement of a false electric dipole moment signal from Hg atoms exposed to an inhomogeneous magnetic field

S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +46

We report on the measurement of a Larmor frequency shift proportional to the electric-field strength for atoms contained in a volume permeated with aligned magneti…

A device for simultaneous spin analysis of ultracold neutrons

S. Afach, G. Ban, G. Bison +37

We report on the design and first tests of a device allowing for measurement of ultracold neutrons polarisation by means of the simultaneous analysis of the two spin components. Th…

Frequency localized regularity criteria for the 3D Navier-Stokes equations

Zoran Grujic, Zachary Bradshaw

Two regularity criteria are established to highlight which Littlewood-Paley frequencies play an essential role in possible singularity formation in a Leray-Hopf weak solution to th…

Constraining interactions mediated by axion-like particles with ultracold neutrons

S. Afach, G. Ban, G. Bison +35

We report a new limit on a possible short range spin-dependent interaction from the precise measurement of the ratio of Larmor precession frequencies of stored ultracold neutrons a…

A measurement of the neutron to 199Hg magnetic moment ratio

S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +51

The neutron gyromagnetic ratio has been measured relative to that of the 199Hg atom with an uncertainty of 0.8 ppm. We employed an apparatus where ultracold neutrons and mercury at…
