Measurement of the permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron

C. Abel, S. Afach, N. J. Ayres +81

We present the result of an experiment to measure the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron at the Paul Scherrer Institute using Ramsey's method of separated oscillating magn…

Magnetic field uniformity in neutron electric dipole moment experiments

C. Abel, N. Ayres, T. Baker +53

Magnetic field uniformity is of the utmost importance in experiments to measure the electric dipole moment of the neutron. A general parametrization of the magnetic field in terms…

A device for simultaneous spin analysis of ultracold neutrons

S. Afach, G. Ban, G. Bison +37

We report on the design and first tests of a device allowing for measurement of ultracold neutrons polarisation by means of the simultaneous analysis of the two spin components. Th…
