Achieving ultra-low and -uniform residual magnetic fields in a very large magnetically shielded room for fundamental physics experiments
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +47
High-precision searches for an electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) require stable and uniform magnetic field environments. We present the recent achievements of degaussing…
A large 'Active Magnetic Shield' for a high-precision experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +48
We present a novel Active Magnetic Shield (AMS), designed and implemented for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The experiment will perform a high-sensitivity se…
The `n2EDM MSR' -- a very large magnetically shielded room with an exceptional performance for fundamental physics measurements
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +41
We present the magnetically shielded room (MSR) for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute which features an interior cubic volume with each side of length 2.92m, thus…
Mapping of the magnetic field to correct systematic effects in a neutron electric dipole moment experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +50
Experiments dedicated to the measurement of the electric dipole moment of the neutron require outstanding control of the magnetic field uniformity. The neutron electric dipole mome…
The design of the n2EDM experiment
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, L. Bienstman +58
We present the design of a next-generation experiment, n2EDM, currently under construction at the ultracold neutron source at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) with the aim of carr…
Development of a Quality Assurance Process for the SoLid Experiment
Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, G. Ban +53
The SoLid experiment has been designed to search for an oscillation pattern induced by a light sterile neutrino state, utilising the BR2 reactor of SCKCEN, in Belgium. The…
