Precision Neutron Polarimetry
ORAL
Abstract
Proposed PANDA and abBA experiments aim to measure the correlation coefficients in the polarized neutron beta decay at the SNS. The goal of these experiments is 0.1{\%} measurement which will require neutron polarimetry at 0.1{\%} level. The FnPB neutron beam will be polarized either using a $^{3}$He spin filter or a supermirror polarizer and the neutron polarization will be measured using a $^{3}$He spin filter. Experiment to establish the accuracy to which neutron polarization can be determined using $^{3}$He spin fliters was performed at Los Alamos National Laboratory in Summer 2007 and the analysis is in progress. The details of the experiment and the results will be presented.
