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…

Measurement of the Neutron Lifetime Using a Proton Trap
M. S. Dewey, D. M. Gilliam, J. S. Nico +8
We report a new measurement of the neutron decay lifetime by the absolute counting of in-beam neutrons and their decay protons. Protons were confined in a quasi-Penning trap and co…
