Abstract

The comparison of results of cross section measurements by the different methods can provide useful information on existence of long-range interaction. The total neutron cross sections of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe were measured using a method of ultracold neutrons. Measurements with ultra cold neutrons confirm the discrepancy between coherent cross-section of scattering for He measured by a neutron interferometer and scattering cross-section measured by the transmission method. The discrepancy makes up 5.3 standard deviations.
