Neutron-antineutron oscillations in a trap revisited
- 1. State Research Center Inst. of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, Moscow (Russian Federation)
Description
The problem of n-n-bar oscillations for ultra-cold neutrons confined within a trap is reexamined. It is shown that for up to 103 collisions with the walls, the process can be described in terms of wave packets. The n-bar component grows linear with time with the enhancement factor depending on the reflection properties of the walls
Abstract (Russian)
Исследована проблема n-n-bar осцилляций для ультрахолодных нейтронов, удерживаемых в ловушках. Показано, что для событий до 103 столкновений со стенками процесс может быть описан в терминах волновых пакетов. Компоненты n-bar растут линейно со временем с фактором усиления, зависящем от свойств отражения стенокAdditional details
