Abstract
Applying a Mott polarimetry for measurement of the transverse polarization components of electrons from free neutron decay as well as proton momentum reconstruction using the combination of the time of flight method and the kinematical constrains of this three body decay, one gets access to eleven correlation coefficients of the neutron β-decay. Successful measurement of some of these coefficients would allow for an unique access to exotic scalar and tensor couplings of weak interactions and obtaining new constraints on their imaginary part, known with much worse accuracy. Results of the performance studies of some key experimental components of the prototype setup performed during the test run in 2021 at ILL PF1B neutron beam line are presented.
