At the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory we have used the target to measure the total cross section differences Δσ T and Δσ L for incident polarized neutrons of energies 2–8 MeV. The cross section difference is sensitive to the excited state structure of the n- 3 He system. The results have been compared to a recent R-matrix analysis of R = 4 scattering and reaction data, and provide support for the 4 He level scheme derived from that analysis.}, number={2-3}, journal={NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTS & METHODS IN PHYSICS RESEARCH SECTION A-ACCELERATORS SPECTROMETERS DETECTORS AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT}, author={Haase, DG and Keith, CD and Gould, CR and Huffman, PR and Roberson, NR and Seely, ML and Tornow, W and Wilburn, WS}, year={1998}, month={Jan}, pages={341–346} } @article{alfimenkov_chernikov_lason_mareev_novitsky_pikelner_skoy_tsulaya_gould_haase_et al._1997, title={Energy and orientation dependence of neutron depolarization in a large single crystal of ferromagnetic holmium}, volume={81}, ISSN={["0021-8979"]}, DOI={10.1063/1.364179}, abstractNote={We report measurements of the depolarization of epithermal neutrons (1.7–59 eV) in magnetic domains of a 2.0-cm-diam cylindrical single crystal of ferromagnetic holmium. The neutrons were polarized by a dynamically polarized proton target and polarization analyzed using a statically polarized rare-earth spin filter. Based on the dependence of the depolarization on neutron energy and crystal orientation, we determined the domains to be laminar, or needlelike, with the long axis slightly deflected from the c crystalline axis and having an average width of 59 μm.}, number={3}, journal={JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS}, author={Alfimenkov, VP and Chernikov, AN and Lason, L and Mareev, YD and Novitsky, VV and Pikelner, LB and Skoy, VR and Tsulaya, MI and Gould, CR and Haase, DG and et al.}, year={1997}, month={Feb}, pages={1358–1361} } @article{huffman_roberson_wilburn_gould_haase_keith_raichle_seely_walston_1997, title={Test of parity-conserving time-reversal invariance using polarized neutrons and nuclear spin aligned holmium}, volume={55}, ISSN={["2469-9993"]}, DOI={10.1103/physrevc.55.2684}, abstractNote={A test of parity-conserving, time-reversal noninvariance (PC TRNI) has been performed in 5.9 MeV polarized neutron transmission through nuclear spin aligned holmium. The experiment searches for the $T$-violating fivefold correlation via a double modulation technique---flipping the neutron spin while rotating the alignment axis of the holmium. Relative cross sections for spin-up and spin-down neutrons are found to be equal to within $1.2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}5}$ (80% confidence). This is a two orders of magnitude improvement compared to traditional detailed balance studies of time reversal, and represents the most precise test of PC TRNI in a dynamical process, to our knowledge.}, number={5}, journal={PHYSICAL REVIEW C}, author={Huffman, PR and Roberson, NR and Wilburn, WS and Gould, CR and Haase, DG and Keith, CD and Raichle, BW and Seely, ML and Walston, JR}, year={1997}, month={May}, pages={2684–2696} }
