Measurement of the Neutron Lifetime by Counting Trapped Protons in a Cold Neutron Beam
J. S. Nico, M. S. Dewey, D. M. Gilliam +9
A measurement of the neutron lifetime performed by the absolute counting of in-beam neutrons and their decay protons has been completed. Protons confined in a quasi-Penning…

A Backscatter-Suppressed Beta Spectrometer for Neutron Decay Studies
F. E. Wietfeldt, C. Trull, R. Anderman +6
We describe a beta electron spectrometer for use in an upcoming experiment that will measure the beta-antineutrino correlation coefficient (a-coefficient) in neutron beta decay. El…
