The new APD-Based Readout of the Crystal Barrel Calorimeter -- An Overview
TAPS Collaboration, C. Honisch, P. Klassen +47
The Crystal Barrel is an electromagnetic calorimeter consisting of 1380 CsI(Tl) scintillators, and is currently installed at the CBELSA/TAPS experiment where it is used to detect d…
Developing a silica aerogel radiator for the HELIX ring-imaging Cherenkov system
Makoto Tabata, Patrick Allison, James J. Beatty +18
This paper reports the successful fabrication of silica aerogel Cherenkov radiators produced in the first batches from a 96-tile mass production performed using pin-drying techniqu…
A beamline for fundamental neutron physics at TRIUMF
S. Ahmed, T. Andalib, M. J. Barnes +44
This article describes the new primary proton beamline 1U at TRIUMF. The purpose of this beamline is to produce ultracold neutrons (UCN) for fundamental-physics experiments. It del…
First ultracold neutrons produced at TRIUMF
S. Ahmed, E. Altiere, T. Andalib +50
We installed a source for ultracold neutrons at a new, dedicated spallation target at TRIUMF. The source was originally developed in Japan and uses a superfluid-helium converter co…
Sensitivity of Fields Generated within Magnetically Shielded Volumes to Changes in Magnetic Permeability
T. Andalib, J. W. Martin, C. P. Bidinosti +4
Future experiments seeking to measure the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) require stable and homogeneous magnetic fields. Normally these experiments use a coil internal to a…
Large Magnetic Shielding Factor Measured by Nonlinear Magneto-optical Rotation
Jeffery W. Martin, Russell R. Mammei, Wolfgang Klassen +5
A passive magnetic shield was designed and constructed for magnetometer tests for the future neutron electric dipole moment experiment at TRIUMF. The axial shielding factor of the…
