Gravitational resonance spectroscopy with an oscillating magnetic field gradient in the GRANIT flow through arrangement

G. Pignol, S. Baessler, V. V. Nesvizhevsky +3

Gravitational resonance spectroscopy consists in measuring the energy spectrum of bouncing ultracold neutrons above a mirror by inducing resonant transitions between different disc…

Centrifugal quantum states of neutrons

V. V. Nesvizhevsky, A. K. Petukhov, K. V. Protasov +1

We propose a method for observation of the quasi-stationary states of neutrons, localized near the curved mirror surface. The bounding effective well is formed by the centrifugal p…

GRANIT project: a trap for gravitational quantum states of UCN

G. Pignol, K. V. Protasov, D. Rebreyend +22

Previous studies of gravitationally bound states of ultracold neutrons showed the quantization of energy levels, and confirmed quantum mechanical predictions for the average size o…

Quantum motion of a neutron in a wave-guide in the gravitational field

A. Yu. Voronin, H. Abele, S. Baessler +4

We study theoretically the quantum motion of a neutron in a horizontal wave-guide in the gravitational field of the Earth. The wave-guide in question is equipped with a mirror belo…
