Abstract
We performed ultracold neutron storage measurements to search for additional losses due to neutron (n) to mirror-neutron (n[prime]) oscillations as a function of an applied magnetic field B. In the presence of a mirror magnetic field B[prime], ultracold neutron losses would be maximal for B[approximate]B[prime]. We did not observe any indication for nn[prime] oscillations and placed a lower limit on the oscillation time of taunn[prime]>12.0 s at 95% C.L. for any B[prime] between 0 and 12.5 _s09T.
