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…

First Full Dalitz Plot Measurement in Neutron -Decay using the Nab Spectrometer and Implications for New Physics

Francisco M. Gonzalez, Jin Ha Choi, Himal Acharya +89

Precision measurements of observables in neutron -decay are used to test the Standard Model description of the weak interaction and search for evidence of new physics. The Nab e…

A Method for Proton Detector Efficiency Measurement with Applications in Neutron Beta Decay and Lifetime Experiments

Grant V. Riley, Nadia Fomin, Jaideep Taggart Singh +4

This article proposes a new method to measure the proton detector efficiency for use in "beam" determinations of the free neutron lifetime. There is currently a 4σ disagreement bet…

Fundamental Neutron Physics: a White Paper on Progress and Prospects in the US

R. Alarcon, A. Aleksandrova, S. Baeßler +88

Fundamental neutron physics, combining precision measurements and theory, probes particle physics at short range with reach well beyond the highest energies probed by the LHC. Sign…
