A New High-Intensity Source for Ultracold Neutrons
K. Abe, S. Ahmed, B. Algohi +78
The TRIUMF UltraCold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) collaboration has completed a new superthermal source for ultracold neutrons (UCNs) at TRIUMF. It uses neutrons from a spallation targ…
Initial results of the TRIUMF ultracold advanced neutron source
B. Algohi, D. Anthony, L. Barrón-Palos +83
We report the first results on ultracold neutron production from a new spallation-driven superfluid He (He-II) source at TRIUMF, which is being prepared for a new, precise meas…
Ultracold Neutron Guide-Coating Facility at U.Winnipeg
T. Hepworth, A. Zahra, B. Algohi +72
We report the construction and commissioning of a new ultracold neutron (UCN) guide-coating facility at the University of Winnipeg. The facility employs pulsed laser deposition (PL…
Neutron EDM Experiment with an Advanced Ultracold Neutron Source at TRIUMF
T. Higuchi, B. Algohi, D. Anthony +67
The TRIUMF Ultracold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) collaboration has been developing a high-intensity ultracold neutron (UCN) source aimed at searching for the neutron electric dipole m…
A gaseous-helium cooling system for silicon detectors in the Nab experiment
Love Richburg, Noah Birge, Nadia Fomin +40
The Nab experiment aims to extract the neutron beta decay correlation coefficients 'a' and 'b'. This will be accomplished using a 7 m tall electromagnetic spectrometer which measur…
From Commissioning to Precision Data-Taking: Resolving Operational Challenges in the Nab Detector Systems
L. J. Broussard, H. Acharya, R. Alarcon +36
Our understanding of the weak mixing of quarks, described by the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa (CKM) matrix, currently presents an anomaly. Thanks to major strides in both theory and e…
