Off-specular neutron reflection from magnetic media with nondiagonal reflectivity matrices

Description

The reflection of neutrons from magnetic substances is described using the reflection matrix with nondiagonal, in general, matrix elements which determine neutron spin reverse. In external field the spin reverse is accompanied by changes of the neutron kinetic energy and, as results, the reflection angle. 5 refs.; 5 figs
