Abstract
The quantum aspects of the description of neutron beams in magnetic media are discussed. `Neutron polarization' and `neutron beam polarization' are not equivalent, as the former is related to the probability densities of neutron spin states whereas the latter is related to the respective current densities (intensities). The very presence of a magnetic field induces polarization of beam neutrons. As a consequence, neutron beams are polarized even by unpolarized nuclei. A possibility to produce the source of polarized ultracold neutrons is pointed out.
