Fundamental Neutron Physics: a White Paper on Progress and Prospects in the US

R. Alarcon, A. Aleksandrova, S. Baeßler +88

Fundamental neutron physics, combining precision measurements and theory, probes particle physics at short range with reach well beyond the highest energies probed by the LHC. Sign…

Comments on Systematic Effects in the NIST Beam Neutron Lifetime Experiment

F. E. Wietfeldt, R. Biswas, J. Caylor +10

We discuss issues raised by Serebrov, et al. in a recent paper regarding systematic effects in the beam neutron lifetime experiment performed at NIST. We show that these effects we…

Measurement of the Parity-Odd Angular Distribution of Gamma Rays From Polarized Neutron Capture on Cl

N. Fomin, R. Alarcon, L. Alonzi +61

We report a measurement of two energy-weighted gamma cascade angular distributions from polarized slow neutron capture on the Cl nucleus, one parity-odd correlation propor…

Geometric Optimization of a Neutron Detector for In-Flight Measurement of the Neutron Lifetime

A. W. Nelsen, E. G. Ballantyne, R. E. Calvert +4

The recent measurement of the lifetime of the free neutron using the beam method has an 8.7 s (4) discrepancy with UCN measurements. The goal of the BL3 experiment is to improve…

New high-sensitivity searches for neutrons converting into antineutrons and/or sterile neutrons at the European Spallation Source

A. Addazi, K. Anderson, S. Ansell +92

The violation of Baryon Number, , is an essential ingredient for the preferential creation of matter over antimatter needed to account for the observed baryon asymmetr…

First Precision Measurement of the Parity Violating Asymmetry in Cold Neutron Capture on He

n3He Collaboration, M. T. Gericke, S. Baeßler +26

We report the first precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry in the direction of proton emission with respect to the neutron spin, in the reaction $^{3}\mathrm{He}(\…
