چکیده

The possibility of neutron swapping between the ordinary and mirror sectors is today a subject great many theoretical experimental studies. In this paper, we investigate neutron-mirror transitions in different environments from vacuum to star. Our approach based on density matrix formalism, Lindblad Bloch equations implication seesaw mechanism Hamiltonian diagonalization.

neutron star density in vacuum

By simple arguments, we have shown that Károlyházy's model overestimates the quantum uncertainty of the space-time geometry and leads to absurd physical consequences. The given model can thus not account for gradual violation of quantum coherence and can not predict tiny experimental effects either.

neutron–mirror neutron oscillations

The existence of a mirror world holding a copy of our ordinary particle spectrum could lead to oscillations between the neutron (n) and its mirror partner (n0). Such oscillations could manifest themselves in storage experiments with ultracold neutrons whose storage lifetime would depend on the applied magnetic field. Here, extended details and measurements from the first dedicated experimental ...

A Novel Neutron Dosimeter

Background: Neutron contamination in our environment can cause harmful biological effects on human body. Therefore, many efforts have been made to construct a neutron dosimeter to estimate the received dose. Objective: To design a simple neutron dosimeter. Methods: The primary dosimeter had 3He as a spherical thermal neutron detector encircled by paraffin 10 cm in radius. Then, the paraffin sph...

Modulating the Neutron Flux from a Mirror Neutron Source

A 14-MeV neutron source based on a Gas-Dynamic Trap will provide a high flux of 14 MeV neutrons for fusion materials and sub-component testing. In addition to its main goal, the source has potential applications in condensed matter physics and biophysics. In this report, the author considers adding one more capability to the GDT-based neutron source, the modulation of the neutron flux with a de...

Neutron-phonon Interaction in Neutron Star Crusts

The phonon spectrum of Coulomb lattice in neutron star crusts above the neutron drip density is affected by the interaction with the ambient neutron Fermi-liquid. For the values of the neutron-phonon coupling constant in the range 0.1 ≤ λ ≤ 1 an appreciable renormalization of the phonon spectrum occurs which can lead to a lattice instability manifested in an exponential growth of the density fl...
