Deuterated polyethylene coatings for ultra-cold neutron applications

Th. Brenner, P. Fierlinger, P. Geltenbort +11

We report on the fabrication and use of deuterated polyethylene (dPE) as a coating material for ultra-cold neutron (UCN) storage and transport. The Fermi potential has been determi…

Minimizing magnetic fields for precision experiments

I. Altarev, P. Fierlinger, T. Lins +10

An increasing number of measurements in fundamental and applied physics rely on magnetically shielded environments with sub nano-Tesla residual magnetic fields. State of the art ma…

A large-scale magnetic shield with 10^6 damping at mHz frequencies

I. Altarev, M. Bales, D. H. Beck +16

We present a magnetically shielded environment with a damping factor larger than one million at the mHz frequency regime and an extremely low field and gradient over an extended vo…

A magnetically shielded room with ultra low residual field and gradient

I. Altarev, E. Babcock, D. Beck +29

A versatile and portable magnetically shielded room with a field of (700 \pm 200) pT within a central volume of 1m x 1m x 1m and a field gradient less than 300 pT/m is described. T…

Testing isotropy of the universe using the Ramsey resonance technique on ultracold neutron spins

I. Altarev, G. Ban, G. Bison +38

Physics at the Planck scale could be revealed by looking for tiny violations of fundamental symmetries in low energy experiments. In 2008, a sensitive test of the isotropy of the U…

New constraints on Lorentz invariance violation from the neutron electric dipole moment

I. Altarev, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +40

We propose an original test of Lorentz invariance in the interaction between a particle spin and an electromagnetic field and report on a first measurement using ultracold neutrons…

Neutron to Mirror-Neutron Oscillations in the Presence of Mirror Magnetic Fields

I. Altarev, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +43

We performed ultracold neutron (UCN) storage measurements to search for additional losses due to neutron (n) to mirror-neutron (n') oscillations as a function of an applied magneti…

Test of Lorentz invariance with spin precession of ultracold neutrons

I. Altarev, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +43

A clock comparison experiment, analyzing the ratio of spin precession frequencies of stored ultracold neutrons and Hg atoms is reported. %57 No daily variation of this rati…
