Abstract
We revisit a recent proposal by Wagh to test the dependence of spinor phase on the orientation of the precession axis. We identify the spinor phase shift originating from the misalignment between π-flippers in the two branches of a neutron interferometer with a geometric phase. We also interpret quantum beats in polarised neutron interferometry observed by Rauch's group as a manifestation of a time-dependent geometric phase shift.
