Further search for magnetic-field-induced neutron disappearance in an ultracold neutron beam
Gaby Brenot, Benoit Clément, Hanno Filter-Pieler +7
We report the results of the second iteration of an experiment searching for neutron-hidden-neutron oscillations in a beam of ultracold neutrons, conducted at the PF2 facility of t…
Simulation and optimization of the Active Magnetic Shield of the n2EDM experiment
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +47
The n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute aims to conduct a high-sensitivity search for the electric dipole moment of the neutron. Magnetic stability and control are achi…
Measurement of the neutron incoherent scattering length of Hg using stored ultracold neutrons
C. Abel, K. Bodek, E. Chanel +35
We present the first direct measurement of the neutron incoherent scattering length of Hg. The measurement was performed with the Ramsey apparatus of the neutron electric…
Ultracold neutron energy spectrum and storage properties from magnetically induced spin depolarization
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +53
We present a novel method for extracting the energy spectrum of ultracold neutrons from magnetically induced spin depolarization measurements using the n2EDM apparatus. This method…
Fundamental Nuclear and Particle Physics At Neutron Sources
H. Abele, J. Amaral, W. R. Anthony +121
Fundamental neutron and neutrino physics at neutron sources, combining precision measurements and theory, can probe new physics at energy scales well beyond the highest energies pr…
Generating a highly uniform magnetic field inside the magnetically shielded room of the n2EDM experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +63
We present a coil system designed to generate a highly uniform magnetic field for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. It consists of a main coil and a set of…
