Probing Single-Particle Spatial Extent With Helical Neutron Wavefronts
D. Sarenac, O. Lailey, C. W. Clark +8
Distinguishing transverse coherence length from single-particle wavepacket extent is fundamentally challenging, as both manifest through spatial broadening of observed intensity pr…

Experimental Limit on Neutron Orbital Angular Momentum Detection Using Polarized 3He
D. Sarenac, O. Lailey, D. V. Garrad +11
A recent proposal suggested that neutron orbital angular momentum (OAM) states could be detected via spin-polarized absorption in polarized 3He, with predicted cross-section variat…

Multimode structured neutron beams
Owen Lailey, Dusan Sarenac, Charles W. Clark +9
The experimental realization of neutron orbital angular momentum (OAM) states and neutron Airy beams has opened new avenues for structured neutron science in both materials charact…
