Monte Carlo Simulations of Trapped Ultracold Neutrons in the UCNτ Experiment
Nathan Callahan, Chen-Yu Liu, Francisco Gonzalez +37
In the UCNτ experiment, ultracold neutrons (UCN) are confined by magnetic fields and the Earth's gravitational field. Field-trapping mitigates the problem of UCN loss on material s…

Measurement of the neutron lifetime using a magneto-gravitational trap
Nathan Callahan
Precision measurements of the free neutron lifetime , when combined with measurements of the axial vector form factor, can be used to test unitarity of the CKM matrix. Non-uni…
