Geometrical phase effects in neutron optics

Description

The aim of paper is to give a detailed analysis of the geometric phase (Berry phase) and a discussion of the specifics of its measurements during neutron spin evolution in a precessing magnetic field, which is the most typical physical process as far as the manifestation of this type of effects concerned. 24 refs.; 6 figs
