Coherent scattering with pulsed matter beams
We present a quantum theory for the interaction of a quantum target with a time dependent matter beam. When several pulses in the incident beam arrive with a period tau, transitions between levels with an energy difference h/tau can be enhanced. Unlike all previous studies, we find that transitions in passive targets can distinguish between an incoherent beam and a beam with a coherent wave pac...
متن کاملScattering with longitudinally coherent matter beams
I present a derivation of the many qualitative changes to basic scattering theory that result when a ~partially! coherent matter beam inelastically interacts with a quantum target. The weak beam limit, where only one object in the beam interacts with the quantum target, is developed. Some of the basic changes to scattering theory are as follows. ~1! The transition probability can increase as th...
متن کاملMeasurement 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 کاملThe bound coherent neutron scattering lengths of the oxygen isotopes.
The technique of neutron interferometry was used to measure the bound coherent neutron scattering length b(coh) of the oxygen isotopes (17)O and (18)O. From the measured difference in optical path between two water samples, either H(2)(17)O or H(2)(18)O versus H(2)(nat)O, where nat denotes the natural isotopic composition, we obtain b(coh,(17)O) = 5.867(4) fm and b(coh,(18)O) = 6.009(5) fm, bas...
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 ...
