Abstract: | The reflection of neutrons from magnetic substances is described using a reflection matrix including (in general) the off-diagonal matrix elements responsible for neutron spin reversal. In an external field the spin reversal is accompanied by changes in the neutron kinetic energy and, as a result, the reflection angle. An experiment to observe this new effect is described and the results are reported. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.
