New result for the neutron -asymmetry parameter from UCNA

M. A. -P. Brown, E. B. Dees, E. Adamek +56

The neutron -decay asymmetry parameter defines the correlation between the spin of the neutron and the momentum of the emitted electron, which determines $λ=\frac{g_{A}}{g…

Performance of the upgraded ultracold neutron source at Los Alamos National Laboratory and its implication for a possible neutron electric dipole moment experiment

T. M. Ito, E. R. Adamek, N. B. Callahan +23

The ultracold neutron (UCN) source at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), which uses solid deuterium as the UCN converter and is driven by accelerator spallation neutrons, has b…

First direct constraints on Fierz interference in free neutron decay

K. P. Hickerson, X. Sun, Y. Bagdasarova +40

Precision measurements of free neutron -decay have been used to precisely constrain our understanding of the weak interaction. However the neutron Fierz interference term ,…

Evaluation of commercial nickel-phosphorus coating for ultracold neutron guides using a pinhole bottling method

R. W. Pattie, E. Adamek, T. Brenner +24

We report on the evaluation of commercial electroless nickel phosphorus (NiP) coatings for ultracold neutron (UCN) transport and storage. The material potential of 50~m thick Ni…
