Research Interests:

Professor Baeßler does research in fundamental physics with neutrons and related topics. His main activities are devoted to physics with cold neutrons at the SNS in Oak Ridge/Tennessee. He conducts studies in neutron beta decay and in hadronic weak interactions. In addition, he is testing gravity with ultracold neutrons at the ILL in Grenoble/France, and he is looking for deviations from Lorentz Invariance (Univ. Mainz and PTB Berlin/Germany).
