Figure 4.4: a) γ-ray energy spectrum and b) γ-ray energy-time m<strong>at</strong>rix from <strong>the</strong> β<br />
decay of 1.2 billion 223 Rn nuclei from an initial 8×10 10 nuclei loc<strong>at</strong>ed inside <strong>the</strong> EDM<br />
cell surround by a ring of eight GRIFFINdetectors. The EDM cell, oven, magnet and<br />
1 mm of µMetal shielding were included in <strong>the</strong> simul<strong>at</strong>ion. The initial polariz<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
was 100% and both <strong>the</strong> spin-relax<strong>at</strong>ion (T 1 ) and <strong>the</strong> spin-decoherence (T 2 ) times were<br />
simul<strong>at</strong>ed to be 30 seconds, resulting in a combined depolariz<strong>at</strong>ion time of 15 seconds.<br />
