Abstract
In a precision measurement of the spectrum of ultracold neutrons as it evolves during storage in a ''neutron bottle'' we have observed an in dication of a surprising heating by approximate to 10(-10) eV, occurri ng during the initial several 100 s of storage. We have not found any simple explanation. The data are, however, consistent with unconventio nal ideas proposed previously by two of us.
