Observation of Quasibound States of the Neutron in Matter
Quasistationary states of ultracold neutrons have been observed in a double-hump potential barrier. This potential barrier was created by sandwiching a thin film of aluminum between two thin copper films. Measurements of reflection from and transmission through such composite films displayed clear resonances. The resonance positions and widths are in agreement with calculations
Correlation Time-of-flight Spectrometry of Ultracold Neutrons
The fearures of the correlation method used in time-of-flight spectrometry of
ultracold neutrons are analyzed. The time-of-flight spectrometer for the energy
range of ultracold neutrons is described, and results of its testing by
measuring spectra of neutrons passing through interference filters are
presented.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figure
