Abstract = {Precision measurements of neutron properties, like its permanent electric
dipole moment, rely on understanding complex experimental setups in detail. We
show how the properties of stored and transported ultracold neutron ensembles
can be simulated reliably. In a second step, we illustrate how they can be used
for simulation-based inference of the parameters associated with underlying
physics processes such as neutron capture or beta decay. Our proof of principle
for simulation-based inference confronts a longstanding challenge with
ultracold neutrons: low measurement statistics coupled with a complex
apparatus.},
