Measurement of the Free Neutron Lifetime in a Magneto-Gravitational Trap with In Situ Detection

R. Musedinovic, L. S. Blokland, C. B. Cude-Woods +32

Here we publish three years of data for the UCNtau experiment performed at the Los Alamos Ultra Cold Neutron Facility at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. These data are in ad…

An experimental search for an explanation of the difference between beam and bottle neutron lifetime measurements

M. F. Blatnik, L. S. Blokland, N. Callahan +32

The past two decades have yielded several new measurements and reanalysis of older measurements of the neutron lifetime. These have led to a 4.4 standard deviation discrepancy betw…

Demonstration of Sub-micron UCN Position Resolution using Room-temperature CMOS Sensor

S. Lin, J. K. Baldwin, M. Blatnik +25

High spatial resolution of ultracold neutron (UCN) measurement is of growing interest to UCN experiments such as UCN spectrometers, UCN polarimeters, quantum physics of UCNs, and q…

Measurement of the Parity-Odd Angular Distribution of Gamma Rays From Polarized Neutron Capture on Cl

N. Fomin, R. Alarcon, L. Alonzi +61

We report a measurement of two energy-weighted gamma cascade angular distributions from polarized slow neutron capture on the Cl nucleus, one parity-odd correlation propor…

Improved limits on Fierz Interference using asymmetry measurements from the UCNA experiment

Xuan Sun, E. Adamek, B. Allgeier +56

The Ultracold Neutron Asymmetry (UCNA) experiment was designed to measure the -decay asymmetry parameter, , for free neutron decay. In the experiment, polarized ultracold n…
