Moiré Effect Could Enhance Neutron Interferometry
S ince the early days of quantum theory, its peculiarities have fascinated, worried, and even annoyed physicists. To investigate some of the most puzzling aspects of quantum mechanics, such as wave-particle duality and Schrödinger-cat states, experiments have often utilized the technique of perfect-crystal neutron interferometry, which involves interfering matter waves scattering off crystal pl...
متن کاملMoiré interferometry with white light.
While high-sensitivity moiré interferometry requires monochromatic light, an auxiliary compensator grating removes the requirement. Experimental verification utilized white light for moiré interference of sensitivity 0.833 microm/fringe. Configurations readily amenable to compensation include moiré fringe multiplication by even factors and the minimum-deviation arrangement. Chromatic compensati...
متن کاملPhase Tomography in Neutron Interferometry
Perfect crystal neutron interferometry permits the simultaneous investigation of different interactions, like absorption, small angle scattering, and forward scattering. The coherent forward scattering of neutrons in materials or magnetic fields generates phase shifts, which can be detected with high sensitivity. The tomographic reconstruction of phase projections is similar to that of intensit...
متن کاملComplete Positivity and Neutron Interferometry
We analyze the dynamics of neutron beams in interferometry experiments using quantum dynamical semigroups. We show that these experiments could provide stringent limits on the non-standard, dissipative terms appearing in the extended evolution equations.
متن کاملNoise-induced dephasing in neutron interferometry
Decoherence phenomenona in a neutron interferometer are analyzed by simulation of the effects of an environment with magnetic noise fields. Basic calculations and experiments show the validity and limitations of this model system. In particular, loss and recovery of the interference pattern with controllable noise sources in both interferometer arms are discussed in detail. In addition, the dec...
