Larmor Power Limit for Cyclotron Radiation of Relativistic Particles in a Waveguide

N. Buzinsky, R. J. Taylor, W. Byron +25

Cyclotron radiation emission spectroscopy (CRES) is a modern technique for high-precision energy spectroscopy, in which the energy of a charged particle in a magnetic field is meas…

Recoil-Order and Radiative Corrections to the aCORN Experiment

F. E. Wietfeldt, W. A. Byron, B. Collett +8

The aCORN experiment measures the electron-antineutrino -coefficient in free neutron decay. We update the previous aCORN results to include radiative and recoil corrections to f…

First observation of cyclotron radiation from MeV-scale following nuclear beta decay

W. Byron, H. Harrington, R. J. Taylor +30

We present an apparatus for detection of cyclotron radiation that allows a frequency-based beta energy determination in the 5 keV to 5 MeV range, characteristic of nuclear beta dec…

Measurement of the neutron decay electron-antineutrino angular correlation by the aCORN experiment

M. T. Hassan, W. A. Byron, G. Darius +12

The aCORN experiment measures the neutron decay electron-antineutrino correlation (-coefficient) using a novel method based on an asymmetry in proton time-of-flight for events w…

Neutron Polarimetry Using a Polarized 3He Cell for the aCORN Experiment

B. C. Schafer, W. A. Byron, W. C. Chen +7

The neutron polarization of the NG-C beamline at the NIST Center for Neutron Research was measured as part of the aCORN neutron beta decay experiment. Neutron transmission through…

Measurement of the electron-antineutrino correlation in neutron beta decay: aCORN experiment

F. E. Wietfeldt, W. A. Byron, G. Darius +9

The aCORN experiment uses a novel asymmetry method to measure the electron-antineutrino correlation (a-coefficient) in free neutron decay that does not require precision proton spe…

aCORN: an experiment to measure the electron-antineutrino correlation coefficient in free neutron decay

B. Collett, F. Bateman, W. K. Bauder +21

We describe an apparatus used to measure the electron-antineutrino angular correlation coefficient in free neutron decay. The apparatus employs a novel measurement technique in whi…
