Description

Experimental results on neutron reflection from a magnetic film placed in an oscillating magnetic field are reported. We found evidence for neutron spin resonance in the film and observed a spatial beam-splitting. The beam-splitting finds its origin in the exchange of an energy quantum hω between the oscillating field and the neutron.
