متن کاملA high-field adiabatic fast passage ultracold neutron spin flipper for the UCNA experiment.
The UCNA collaboration is making a precision measurement of the β asymmetry (A) in free neutron decay using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN). A critical component of this experiment is an adiabatic fast passage neutron spin flipper capable of efficient operation in ambient magnetic fields on the order of 1 T. The requirement that it operate in a high field necessitated the construction of a f...
متن کاملObservation of anomalous spin-state segregation in a trapped ultracold vapor.
We observe counterintuitive spin segregation in an inhomogeneous sample of ultracold, noncondensed rubidium atoms in a magnetic trap. We use spatially selective microwave spectroscopy to verify a model that accounts for the differential forces on two internal spin states. In any simple understanding of the cloud dynamics, the forces are far too small to account for the dramatic transient spin p...
متن کاملNeutron lifetime measurements using gravitationally trapped ultracold neutrons
Experiment using gravitationally trapped ultracold neutrons (UCNs) to measure the neutron lifetime is reviewed. The precise value of the neutron lifetime is of fundamental importance to particle physics and cosmology. In our experiment, the UCN storage time is brought closest ever to the neutron lifetime: the probability of the UCN loss from the trap was only 1% of that for neutron β-decay. The...
متن کاملhigh spin states in 191os
high spin states in the neutron rich nucleus 191os has been populated for the first time using the82se+192os deep-inelastic reaction at 460 mev beam energy using the alpi accelerators at the laboratorynazionali di legnaro, italy. high fold γ-γ coincidences were acquired with the 4π spectrometer gaspdetector array, consisting of 40 compton-suppressed, large-volume germanium detectors with an inn...
