A Magneto-Gravitational Neutron Trap for the Measurement of the Neutron Lifetime
Neutron decay is the simplest example of nuclear beta-decay. The mean decay lifetime is a key input for predicting the abundance of light elements in the early universe. A precise measurement of the neutron lifetime, when combined with other neutron decay observables, can test for physics beyond …

Thin Films for the Transport of Polarized Ultracold Neutrons for Fundamental Symmetry Study
The use of ultracold neutrons (UCN) to study fundamental parameters such as the neutron lifetime and decay correlations in polarized neutron beta decay are poised to make significant contributions to our understand of the Standard Model and its extensions. To this end, the UCNA experiment is …

Development and Characterization of a Fast Neutron Imaging Telescope (FNIT) for 1--20 MeV Neutrons From the Sun and Nuclear Material
… of a double scatter telescope for 1--20 MeV neutrons intended for applications in solar physics and nuclear security. In high-energy solar physics, detecting the presence of low energy accelerated ions in the low corona is recognized as an important goal. The surest indication of the …
