Measurement of the Coherent Neutron Scattering Length of 3He
By means of neutron interferometry the s-wave neutron scattering length of the (3)He nucleus was re-measured at the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL). Using a skew symmetrical perfect crystal Si-interferometer and a linear twin chamber cell, false phase shifts due to sample misalignment were reduced to a negligible level. Simulation calculations suggest an asymmetrically alternating measuring sequen...

متن کاملPrecision neutron interferometric measurement of the nd coherent neutron scattering length and consequences for models of three-nucleon forces.
We have performed the first high precision measurement of the coherent neutron scattering length of deuterium in a pure sample using neutron interferometry. We find b(nd)=(6.665+/-0.004) fm in agreement with the world average of previous measurements using different techniques, b(nd)=(6.6730+/-0.0045) fm. We compare the new world average for the nd coherent scattering length b(nd)=(6.669+/-0.00...
متن کاملHigh-Precision Determination of the Neutron Coherent Scattering Length
The neutron coherent scattering length b c has been determined interferometrically to an uncertainty of about 5 × 10(-5) by measuring the nondispersive phase. We propose improving the uncertainty to about 10(-6) by optimizing various parameters of the interferometric experiment. Any uncertainty in the b c determination arising from possible variations in the constitution of the ambient air can ...
