Precision measurement of radiative neutron \b{eta}-decay: methodology and systematic effects
J. S. Nico, R. Alarcon, M. J. Bales +18
In the Standard Model the free neutron decays to a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino along with a continuous spectrum of photons. In 2016 the RDK II collaboration reported o…
Detection of molecular hydrogen in a neutron beam lifetime experiment
J. Caylor, R. Biswas, B. Crawford +10
One method of determining the free neutron lifetime involves the absolute counting of neutrons and trapped decay protons. In such experiments, a cold neutron beam traverses a segme…
Reactor Antineutrino Directionality Measurement with the PROSPECT-I Detector
M. Andriamirado, B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +46
The PROSPECT-I detector has several features that enable measurement of the direction of a compact neutrino source. In this paper, a detailed report on the directional measurements…
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…
Nuclear Data to Reduce Uncertainties in Reactor Antineutrino Measurements: Summary Report of the Workshop on Nuclear Data for Reactor Antineutrino Measurements (WoNDRAM)
Catherine Romano, Nathaniel Bowden, Andrew Conant +10
The large quantities of antineutrinos produced through the decay of fission fragments in nuclear reactors provide an opportunity to study the properties of these particles and inve…
