Double-spin asymmetries and absolute cross sections were measured at large Bjorken $x$ (0.25 $ le x le $ 0.90), in both the deep-inelastic and resonance regions, by scattering longitudinally polarized electrons at beam energies of 4.7 and 5.9 GeV from a transversely and longitudinally polarized $^3$He target. In this dedicated experiment, the spin structure function $g_2$ on $^3$He was determined with precision at large $x$, and the neutron twist-three matrix element $d_2^n$ was measured at $left< Q^2right>$ of 3.21 and 4.32 GeV$^2$/$c^2$, with an absolute precision of about $10^{-5}$. Our results are found to be in agreement with lattice QCD calculations and resolve the disagreement found with previous data at $left< Q^2right> =$ 5 GeV$^2$/$c^2$. Combining $d_2^n$ and a newly extracted twist-four matrix element, $f_2^n$, the average neutron color electric and magnetic forces were extracted and found to be of opposite sign and about 30 MeV/fm in magnitude.

We have performed the first high precision measurement of the coherent neutron scattering length of deuterium in a pure sample using neutron interferometry. We find b_nd = (6.665 +/- 0.004) fm in agreement with the world average of previous measureme
nts using different techniques, b_nd = (6.6730 +/- 0.0045) fm. We compare the new world average for the nd coherent scattering length b_nd = (6.669 +/- 0.003) fm to calculations of the doublet and quartet scattering lengths from several modern nucleon-nucleon potential models with three-nucleon force (3NF) additions and show that almost all theories are in serious disagreement with experiment. This comparison is a more stringent test of the models than past comparisons with the less precisely-determined nuclear doublet scattering length of a_nd = (0.65 +/- 0.04) fm.
We report a 0.08 % measurement of the bound neutron scattering length of $^4$He using neutron interferometry. The result is $b = (3.0982 pm 0.0021 mbox{ [stat]} pm 0.0014 mbox{ [sys]}) mbox{ fm}$. The corresponding free atomic scattering length is $a
= (2.4746 pm 0.0017 mbox{ [stat]} pm 0.0011 mbox{ [sys]}) mbox{ fm}$. With this result the world average becomes $b = (3.0993 pm 0.0025)$ fm, a 2 % downward shift and a reduction in uncertainty by more than a factor of six. Our result is in disagreement with a previous neutron interferometric measurement but is in good agreement with earlier measurements using neutron transmission.
We report the first precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry in the direction of proton emission with respect to the neutron spin, in the reaction $^{3}mathrm{He}(mathrm{n},mathrm{p})^{3}mathrm{H}$, using the capture of polarized cold
neutrons in an unpolarized active $^3rm{He}$ target. The asymmetry is a result of the weak interaction between nucleons, which remains one of the most poorly understood aspects of electro-weak theory. The measurement provides an important benchmark for modern effective field theory (EFT) calculations. Measurements like this are necessary to determine the spin-isospin structure of the hadronic weak interaction. Our asymmetry result is $A_{PV} = left( 1.58 pm 0.97 ~mathrm{(stat)} pm 0.24~mathrm{(sys)}right)times10^{-8}$, which has the smallest uncertainty of any parity-violating asymmetry measurement so far.
Neutron beta decay is one of the most fundamental processes in nuclear physics and provides sensitive means to uncover the details of the weak interaction. Neutron beta decay can evaluate the ratio of axial-vector to vector coupling constants in the
standard model, $lambda = g_A / g_V$, through multiple decay correlations. The Nab experiment will carry out measurements of the electron-neutrino correlation parameter $a$ with a precision of $delta a / a = 10^{-3}$ and the Fierz interference term $b$ to $delta b = 3times10^{-3}$ in unpolarized free neutron beta decay. These results, along with a more precise measurement of the neutron lifetime, aim to deliver an independent determination of the ratio $lambda$ with a precision of $delta lambda / lambda = 0.03%$ that will allow an evaluation of $V_{ud}$ and sensitively test CKM unitarity, independent of nuclear models. Nab utilizes a novel, long asymmetric spectrometer that guides the decay electron and proton to two large area silicon detectors in order to precisely determine the electron energy and an estimation of the proton momentum from the proton time of flight. The Nab spectrometer is being commissioned at the Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline at the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Lab. We present an overview of the Nab experiment and recent updates on the spectrometer, analysis, and systematic effects.
The TWIST experiment has made a precision measurement of three of the decay parameters in muon decay. The newest results are rho = 0.75014 +-0.00017(stat) +-0.00044(sys) +-0.00011(eta) and delta = 0.75067 +-0.00030(stat) +-0.00067(sys). Together with
previously published results, improved constraints on possible extensions of the electroweak Standard Model are derived.
