Abstract

This note is based on a talk given at the “Workshop on Very Cold and Ultra Cold Neutron Sources for ESS”. It presents several arguments in favor of using very cold neutrons (VCN) for neutron – antineutron ( n − n ‾) searches. It also proposes a scheme for the implementation of a solid-deuterium VCN converter with a fluorinated detonation nanodiamond (F-DND) reflector that is optimized for an ( n − n ‾) experiment with VCN. An analysis of the feasibility of such a source, as well as its effect on the ( n − n ‾) experiment are beyond the scope of this short note. They will, however, be pursued in the near future in a collaborative manner.

为什么非常冷的中子可以用于中子反中子振荡搜索

这篇笔记是基于在“用于ESS的极冷和超冷中子源研讨会”上的一次演讲。它提出了几个支持使用极冷中子(VCN)的论据，以中子-反中子(n−n)形式进行搜索。它还提出了一种方案，用于实现固体氘VCN转换器与氟化爆轰纳米金刚石(F-DND)反射器，优化了一个(n−n)与VCN的实验。分析这样一种源的可行性，以及它对(n−n)的影响，都超出了这篇短文的范围。但是，在不久的将来将以合作的方式进行这些工作。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
