Proof-of-Principle Experiment on a Displacement-Noise-Free Neutron Interferometer for Gravitational Wave Detection

Shoki Iwaguchi, Takuhiro Fujiie, Taro Nambu +13

The displacement-noise-free interferometer (DFI) is designed to eliminate all displacement-induced noise while retaining sensitivity to gravitational wave (GW) signals. Ground-base…

Measurement of Neutron Whispering Gallery States Using a Pulsed Neutron Beam

Go Ichikawa, Kenji Mishima

A neutron whispering gallery state is a quantum state localized on a material surface bound by the centrifugal force and the material potential. Precise measurements of such quantu…

Precise Neutron Lifetime Measurement Using Pulsed Neutron Beams at J-PARC

N. Sumi, K. Hirota, G. Ichikawa +18

A neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an anti-neutrino through the beta-decay process. The decay lifetime (880 s) is an important parameter in the weak interaction…
