Ultracold Neutrons - Quantum Bouncing Ball Resonates
- University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK) & Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)
Spectroscopic techniques typically probe the interaction between matter and electromagnetic fields. An experiment now demonstrates that transitions between quantum states of neutrons can be brought about by mechanically vibrating a mirror, an approach that may lead to sensitive tests of gravity laws.
