Polarized Beams

  • Chapter
Neutron Capture Gamma-Ray Spectroscopy

Abstract

Polarized beams are applied to studies of fundamental symmetries and of the interaction between neutrons and nuclei. By combining the techniques of polarized beams, polarized targets and gamma-ray spectroscopy many spins can be assigned to final states. For odd A target nuclei the two spins in the s-wave capture state interfere and this interference is related to the mechanism of neutron capture.
