Description

The parametric resonance enhancement of the phase of neutrons due to non-Newtonian anomalous gravitation is considered. The existence of such resonances is confirmed by numerical calculations. A possible experimental scheme for observing this effect is discussed based on an existing neutron interferometer design.
