  1. 562. The search for highly-forbidden nuclear decays.
    Dr Matthew Stukel (SNOLAB)

    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    The measurement of nuclear physics parameters has recently become increasingly important for the fields of geochronology, nuclear physics, and particle astrophysics. This is especially true for highly-forbidden decays, which typically can have a very long, greater than one billion years, half-life. Experimental validation of these decays can allow us to understand their complex...

  2. 986. Development and testing of the TUCAN superfluid He-II based ultra cold neutron source at TRIUMF
    Mr Wolfgang Klassen (University of British Columbia)

    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    The TRIUMF Ultra Cold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) Collaboration has built and tested an ultracold neutron (UCN) source based on superthermal downscattering in isopure superfluid Helium-4. During recent commissioning beamtimes the collaboration demonstrated a record storage density in a prototype EDM storage volume. This new UCN source will serve fundamental physics experiments, including an...

  3. 785. Magnetic Field Characterisation for Gravitational Free Fall Measurements of Antihydrogen in the ALPHA-g Experiment

    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    The comparison of matter and antimatter provides one of the most sensitive tests of fundamental physics, yet until recently the gravitational behavior of antimatter had never been directly observed. For charged antimatter particles, gravitational forces are dwarfed by electromagnetic effects, making such measurements impractical. Antihydrogen—the electrically neutral bound state of an...
