"Hall effect" for neutrons scattered by an A phase MnSi crystal

Abstract

We study a neutron diffraction by A phase of MnSi using a dynamical theory of diffraction and three wave approximation. We show that the neutron diffraction is asymmetrical with respect to an incident plane. The asymmetry depends on a sign of an external magnetic field. This phenomenon can be considered as the Hall effect for neutrons.
