Characterisation of a Thick Pixelated Silicon Detector for Electron Spectroscopy of Neutron Beta Decay

Manuel Lebert, Lilli Löbell, Igor Konorov +1

Silicon detectors are commonly used for spectroscopy of low-energy particles. For electrons in the 1 MeV range, a rather large thickness of 2mm is required to entirely stop the ele…

Gaussian Processes and Bayesian Optimization for High Precision Experiments

Max Lamparth, Mattis Bestehorn, Bastian Märkisch

High-precision measurements require optimal setups and analysis tools to achieve continuous improvements. Systematic corrections need to be modeled with high accuracy and known unc…

Precise Measurements of the Decay of Free Neutrons

Dirk Dubbers, Bastian Märkisch

The impact of new and highly precise neutron \b{eta} decay data is reviewed. We focus on recent results from neutron lifetime, \b{eta} asymmetry, and electron-neutrino correlation…

Search for a muon EDM using the frozen-spin technique

A. Adelmann, M. Backhaus, C. Chavez Barajas +35

This letter of intent proposes an experiment to search for an electric dipole moment of the muon based on the frozen-spin technique. We intend to exploit the high electric field, $…

Towards a first measurement of the free neutron bound beta decay detecting hydrogen atoms at a throughgoing beamtube in a high flux reactor

Wolfgang Schott, Erwin Gutsmiedl, Karina Bernert +9

In addition to the common 3-body decay of the neutron there should exist an effective 2-body subset with the electron and proton forming a Hydrog…

Design of the Magnet System of the Neutron Decay Facility PERC

Xiangzun Wang, Carmen Ziener, Hartmut Abele +27

The PERC (Proton and Electron Radiation Channel) facility is currently under construction at the research reactor FRM II, Garching. It will serve as an intense and clean source of…
