Ultra-cold neutrons
Open accessAbstract
Ultra-cold neutrons (UCN), i.e., neutrons with energy low enough that they undergo total reflection from a given surface at any angle of incidence, can be stored in magnetic and material bottles for periods ranging up to the neutron beta -decay lifetime ( approximately 10 3 s). Starting with a discussion of the theoretical and historical background the development of the field is reviewed from the first experimental observations to the present time with emphasis on the most recent developments and the remaining unsolved problems. The production and transport of UCN is discussed as well as their applications, and the direction that future developments are likely to take.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
