Ultra-cold neutron simulation framework for the free neutron lifetime experiment SPECT
Julian Auler, Utkarsh Bajpai, Martin Engler +10
The precise determination of the free neutron lifetime is of great significance in modern precision physics. This key observable is linked to the mixing of up and down quarks via t…

SPECT: A spin-flip loaded magnetic ultracold neutron trap for a determination of the neutron lifetime
J. Auler, M. Engler, K. Franz +13
The confinement of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) in a three dimensional magnetic field gradient trap allows for a measurement of the free neutron lifetime with superior control over sp…
