The aim of the aSPECT spectrometer is a precise measurement of the proton recoil spectrum in free neutron decay. For kinematic reasons, the shape of the proton spectrum depends on the angular correlation coefficient between the momenta of the electron antineutrino and the electron, a. An accurate measurement of the angular correlation coefficient a is of great interest in order to test the unitarity of the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa Matrix (CKM-Matrix).
A first test beam time was performed during 2005/06 at the beam line MEPHISTO at the neutron research reactor FRM-II in Garching. Results of the data analysis as well as the present status of the aSPECT spectrometer will be presented in this talk.
