Description
NoMoS, the neutron decay products momentum spectrometer, investigates
the beta decay of the free neutron. It uses the R×B drift effect in a uniformly
curved magnetic field and a spatially resolving detector to separate and measure
the charged decay particles according to their momentum. The protons from
the decay are low energetic and need to be made detectable, therefore require
post-acceleration by a high voltage electrode that surrounds the detector. The
poster shows the preliminary detection system and systematic effects introduced
by the high voltage applied to the detector and the electrode.
