Neutron beta decay is an excellent system to test the structure of the charged weak interaction. The Fierz interference term b is sensitive to hypothetical scalar and tensor interactions and absent in the Standard Model. The signature of a non-zero Fierz term in neutron beta decay is an extra energy-dependent phase-space contribution. Major systematic effects are hence related to the detector response: calibration, temporal stability, spatial uniformity and non-linearity effects.
The spectrometer PERKEO III was installed at the Institute Laue-Langevin, Grenoble, France, with the aim to determine the Fierz interference term with a precision of 5× 10−3 from the beta spectrum. We present the measurement and discuss the status of the analysis.
