Abstract

Properties of the cold-neutron beam at the FUNSPIN facility of the SINQ neutron source of the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland were investigated. The measured flux density Φ = ( 2.46 ± 0.04 ) × 10 8 [ cm 2 s mA ] - 1 , the wavelength averaged mean polarization around the beam axis P A = ( 95.29 ± 0.04 ) % and the mean polarization over the full beam cross-section P = [ 89.75 ± 0.01 ( stat ) ± 1.0 ( syst ) ] % are the main attributes of this powerful facility for fundamental particle physics experiments with slow neutrons.
