High voltage and electrode system for a cryogenic experiment to search for the neutron electric dipole moment
M. A. Blatnik, S. M. Clayton, S. A. Currie +16
The cryogenic approach to the search for the neutron electric dipole moment--performing the experiment in superfluid liquid helium--holds promise for a substantial increase in sens…
A study of DC electrical breakdown in liquid helium through analysis of the empirical breakdown field distributions
N. S. Phan, W. Wei, B. Beaumont +6
We report results from a study on electrical breakdown in liquid helium using near-uniform-field stainless steel electrodes with a stressed area of 0.725 cm. The distribu…
Effect of an electric field on liquid helium scintillation produced by fast electrons
N. S. Phan, V. Cianciolo, S. M. Clayton +11
The dependence on applied electric field ( kV/cm) of the scintillation light produced by fast electrons and particles stopped in liquid helium in the temperature range…
An apparatus for studying electrical breakdown in liquid helium at 0.4 K and testing electrode materials for the SNS nEDM experiment
T. M. Ito, J. C. Ramsey, W. Yao +14
We have constructed an apparatus to study DC electrical breakdown in liquid helium at temperatures as low as 0.4 K and at pressures between the saturated vapor pressure and 6…
High electric field development for the SNS nEDM Experiment
T. M. Ito, D. H. Beck, S. M. Clayton +9
A new experiment to search for the permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron is being developed for installation at the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Labora…
Charge Distribution about an Ionizing Electron Track in Liquid Helium
G. M. Seidel, T. M. Ito, A. Ghosh +1
The dependence on an applied electric field of the ionization current produced by an energetic electron stopped in liquid helium can be used to determine the spatial distribution o…
Effect of an electric field on superfluid helium scintillation produced by alpha-particle sources
T. M. Ito, S. M. Clayton, J. Ramsey +5
We report a study of the intensity and time dependence of scintillation produced by weak alpha particle sources in superfluid helium in the presence of an electric field (0 - 45 kV…
Potential for Precision Measurement of Solar Neutrino Luminosity by HERON
Y. H. Huang, R. E. Lanou, H. J. Maris +3
Results are presented for a simulation carried out to test the precision with which a detector design (HERON) based on a superfluid helium target material should be able to measure…
