Recent measurements of charge symmetry breaking in the {ital np} system at 477 MeV, and of {ital A}{sub 00{ital nn}} for {ital np} elastic scattering at 220, 325, and 425 MeV also yield accurate analyzing power data. These data allow the energy dependence of the analyzing power zero-crossing angle and the slope of the analyzing power at the zero-crossing angle to be determined. The incident neutron energies span a region where the zero-crossing angle is strongly energy dependent ({ital E}{sub {ital n}}{lt}250 MeV) to where it is almost independent of energy ({ital E}{sub {ital n}}{gt}350 MeV). The results are compared to current phase-shift analysis predictions, recently published data, and the predictions of the Bonn and Paris potentials.
