Detection of ultracold neutrons with powdered scintillator screens

M. Krivos, N. C. Floyd, C. L. Morris +24

Zinc sulfide (ZnS:Ag) scintillators coated with a thin 10B layer are widely used for ultracold neutron (UCN) detection, but their application is limited by long decay times and sig…

YAP:Ce scintillator as an absolute ultracold neutron detector

M. Krivoš, Z. Tang, N. Floyd +14

The upcoming UCNProBe experiment at Los Alamos National Laboratory will measure the -decay rate of free neutrons with different systematic uncertainties than previous beam-based…

Scintillation characteristics of the EJ-299-02H scintillator

N. Floyd, Md. T. Hassan, Z. Tang +15

A study of the dead layer thickness and quenching factor of a plastic scintillator for use in ultracold neutron (UCN) experiments is described. Alpha spectroscopy was used to deter…

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…

Ultracold Neutron Properties of the Eljen-299-02D deuterated scintillator

Z. Tang, E. B. Watkins, S. M. Clayton +24

In this paper we report studies of the Fermi potential and loss per bounce of ultracold neutron (UCN) on a deuterated scintillator (Eljen-299-02D). These UCN properties of the scin…

New high-sensitivity searches for neutrons converting into antineutrons and/or sterile neutrons at the European Spallation Source

A. Addazi, K. Anderson, S. Ansell +92

The violation of Baryon Number, , is an essential ingredient for the preferential creation of matter over antimatter needed to account for the observed baryon asymmetr…
