Novel Concept for a Neutron Electric Charge Measurement using a Talbot-Lau Interferometer at a Pulsed Source
Florian M. Piegsa
A concept to measure the neutron electric charge is presented which employs a precision Talbot-Lau interferometer in a high-intensity pulsed neutron beam. It is demonstrated that t…
The Pulsed Neutron Beam EDM Experiment
E. Chanel, Z. Hodge, D. Ries +6
We report on the Beam EDM experiment, which aims to employ a pulsed cold neutron beam to search for an electric dipole moment instead of the established use of storable ultracold n…
ANNI - A pulsed cold neutron beam facility for particle physics at the ESS
Torsten Soldner, Hartmut Abele, Gertrud Konrad +5
Pulsed beams have tremendous advantages for precision experiments with cold neutrons. In order to minimise and measure systematic effects, they are used at continuous sources in sp…
muCool: A next step towards efficient muon beam compression
A. Antognini, Y. Bao, I. Belosevic +15
A novel device to compress the phase space of a muon beam by a factor of with a efficiency is under development. A surface muon beam is stopped in a helium gas…
nEDM experiment at PSI: data-taking strategy and sensitivity of the dataset
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +40
We report on the strategy used to optimize the sensitivity of our search for a neutron electric dipole moment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. Measurements were made upon ultracold…
Magnetic field uniformity in neutron electric dipole moment experiments
C. Abel, N. Ayres, T. Baker +53
Magnetic field uniformity is of the utmost importance in experiments to measure the electric dipole moment of the neutron. A general parametrization of the magnetic field in terms…
The n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +45
We present the new spectrometer for the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) search at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), called n2EDM. The setup is at room temperature in vacuum…
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…
Demonstration of sensitivity increase in mercury free-spin-precession magnetometers due to laser-based readout for neutron electric dipole moment searches
G. Ban, G. Bison, K. Bodek +31
We report on a laser based Hg co-magnetometer deployed in an experiment searching for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron. We demonstrate a more than five tim…
