Oral

Currently, a new experiment aiming to measure the neutron EDM using a pulsed beam of cold neutrons is being commissioned at the University of Bern. The innovative measuring concept is ideally suited for high peak-flux and time-structure provided by next-generation pulsed spallation sources (e.g. the European Spallation Source ESS). The present design, technical challenges and solutions as well...

In the SNS experiment, polarized 3He is used to measure the neutron precession frequency as well as to serve as a co-magnetometer. The polarized 3He, from an atomic beam source, is injected into the system and then removed therefrom in each measurement cycle (using a ‘heat flush’ technique). I will discuss the current status of the system.
