Ultracold Neutrons at TUCAN

Alexis Brossard is a postdoctoral researcher at TRIUMF working on the development and commissioning of the TUCAN ultracold neutron (UCN) source. The experiment features a state-of-the-art cryostat, helium and deuterium systems designed to produce high densities of UCN for precision measurements in fundamental physics.

The McDonald Institute seminar will be held in Stirling 501. A Zoom link is also available and shared via email by the organizers. Please reach out to admin@mcdonaldinstitute.ca for access.
