The development of an ultra-cold neutron (UCN) source at the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL)
based on super-thermal down-scattering of a cold neutron beam in superfluid helium is …

The cryogenic design and performance of an apparatus used to magnetically confine
ultracold neutrons (UCN) is presented. The apparatus is part of an effort to measure the beta …

We propose an experimental technique to measure the neutron β-decay lifetime using
ultracold neutrons (UCN) produced and stored in a superfluid-4 He-filled magnetic trap …

Herein, we describe the magnetic trapping of ultracold neutrons and the design and testing
of an experiment to measure the neutron beta-decay lifetime. In this approach, ultracold …

As part of an R&D programme for the development of a next-generation experiment to
measure the neutron electric dipole moment, in which ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) are …

Recent increase in liquid helium cost caused by global helium supply problems rose
significant concern about affordability of conventional cryogenic equipment. Luckily the …

The TUCAN (TRIUMF Ultra-Cold Advanced Neutron) collaboration has been developing a
source of high-intensity ultra-cold neutrons for use in a neutron electric dipole search. The …

A global shortage of helium gas can seriously jeopardise the scientific programmes of
neutron scattering laboratories due to the use of cryogenic sample environment in the …

We report progress towards magnetic trapping of ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) in preparation
for a neutron lifetime measurement. UCN will be produced by inelastic scattering of cold …
