A new approach to search for free neutron-antineutron oscillations using coherent neutron propagation in gas
arXiv:1912.06730 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2020.135636
Abstract
Coherent forward neutron propagation in gas is discussed as a new approach to search for neutron-antineutron oscillations (), which violate both and conservation. We show that one can increase the probability of neutron - antineutron transitions to essentially the free neutron oscillation rate in the presence of a nonzero external magnetic field by tuning the density of an appropriate mixture of gases so that the neutron optical potential of the gas cancels that from an external magnetic field.
