Design of an optimized nested-mirror neutron reflector for a NNBAR experiment
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2023
The NNBAR experiment for the European Spallation Source will search for free neutrons converting to antineutrons with an expected sensitivity improvement of three orders of magnitude compared to the last such search. This paper describes both the simulations of a key component for the experiment, the neutron optical reflector and the expected gains in sensitivity.
