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…

Search for an interaction mediated by axion-like particles with ultracold neutrons at the PSI

N. J. Ayres, G. Bison, K. Bodek +44

We report on a search for a new, short-range, spin-dependent interaction using a modified version of the experimental apparatus used to measure the permanent neutron electric dipol…

Search for ultralight axion dark matter in a side-band analysis of a 199Hg free-spin precession signal

C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +35

Ultra-low-mass axions are a viable dark matter candidate and may form a coherently oscillating classical field. Nuclear spins in experiments on Earth might couple to this oscillati…

Johnson-Nyquist Noise Effects in Neutron Electric-Dipole-Moment Experiments

N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, G. Bison +37

Magnetic Johnson-Nyquist noise (JNN) originating from metal electrodes, used to create a static electric field in neutron electric-dipole-moment (nEDM) experiments, may limit the s…

Statistical sensitivity of the nEDM apparatus at PSI to neutron mirror-neutron oscillations

C. Abel, N. Ayres, G. Bison +33

The neutron and its hypothetical mirror counterpart, a sterile state degenerate in mass, could spontaneously mix in a process much faster than the neutron -decay. Two groups hav…

A measurement of the neutron to 199Hg magnetic moment ratio

S. Afach, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +51

The neutron gyromagnetic ratio has been measured relative to that of the 199Hg atom with an uncertainty of 0.8 ppm. We employed an apparatus where ultracold neutrons and mercury at…

A proposed search for new light bosons using a table-top neutron Ramsey apparatus

F. M. Piegsa, G. Pignol

If a new light boson existed, it would mediate a new force between ordinary fermions, like neutrons. In general such a new force is described by the Compton wavelength of the…

An Improved Search for the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment

M. Burghoff, A. Schnabel, G. Ban +34

A permanent electric dipole moment of fundamental spin-1/2 particles violates both parity (P) and time re- versal (T) symmetry, and hence, also charge-parity (CP) symmetry since th…

New constraints on Lorentz invariance violation from the neutron electric dipole moment

I. Altarev, C. A. Baker, G. Ban +40

We propose an original test of Lorentz invariance in the interaction between a particle spin and an electromagnetic field and report on a first measurement using ultracold neutrons…
