{wiki=NPDGamma_experiment}
The NPDGamma experiment is a physics experiment designed to study the properties of the neutron, particularly its magnetic moments and interactions. Specifically, it focuses on measuring the \$γ\$-ray emission from the capture of neutrons by protons. This involves investigating the transition between neutron spins and magnetic moments, which has implications for understanding fundamental symmetries in physics, such as charge-parity (CP) violation. The experiment is conducted at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory using a polarized neutron beam.
