Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 185301 (2005) [4 pages]Search for Anomalous Scattering of keV Neutrons from H2O-D2O Mixtures
We measured the neutron scattering intensities from pure liquid H2O relative to that of pure D2O and also relative to H2O-D2O mixtures, at room temperature. This study is relevant to the problem of quantum entanglement. The neutrons were generated from an electron Linac and the final energy of the scattered neutrons was fixed at 24.3 keV using a 20 cm thick pure iron filter. The scattering intensity ratios were found to agree with expected values deduced from the tabulated total cross sections within an accuracy of 3%. Thus no anomaly was observed. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
