Abstract: | Early measurements of the neutron spin-dependent scattering length of 27Al by neutron precession have given two values, consistent within the limits of accuracy, whose mean value is b+?b? = + 0.52 ± 0.02 fm. The positive sign was recently put in doubt from known values of neutron resonance parameters. New experiments were undertaken on a sample of 27Al, a compound sample of 27Al and 45Sc, together with a redetermination of the sign of the 27Al gyromagnetic ratio. These experiments confirmed in sign and magnitude the b+?b? value previously found. We have so far no explanation of the discrepancy. |
