A propos de cet article

Hardcover, ix + 182 pages, NOT ex-library. A clean and bright copy with unmarked text and firm binding, free of inscriptions and stamps. Mild external handling wear, a small scuff-mark on the front board. Published without a dust jacket. -- There is a great interest in improving the limits on neutron lifetime to the level of a precision of 0.1 s. The neutron lifetime is both an important fundamental quantity as well as a parameter influencing important processes such as nucleosynthesis (Helium production in the early universe) and the rate of energy production in the Sun.Aiming to create a roadmap of R&D for a next generation neutron lifetime experiment that can be endorsed by the North American neutron community, the focus of the workshop was on experiments using traps that utilize ultracold neutrons and confinement by a combination of magnetic and/or gravitational interaction in order to avoid systematic uncertainties introduced by neutron interactions with material walls. The papers in this volume summarize the limitations of present experiments, the discussion of new experiments in planning stage, and the discussion of systematic effects that must be addressed to achieve a lifetime measurement at an accuracy of 0.1 second. -- Contents: Neutron Lifetime Theory / William J. Marciano; Neutron Lifetime Experiments Using the Beam Method: Past, Present, and Future / F. E. Wietfeldt; Overview of Magnetic Trapping Neutron Lifetime Experiments / P.R.
