Abstract
Properties sometimes attributed to the ''particle'' aspect of a neutro n, e.g., mass and magnetic moment, cannot straightforwardly be regarde d in the Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics as localized at the hypothetical position of the particle. This is shown by examining a se ries of effects in neutron interferometry. A related thought-experimen t also provides a variation of a recent demonstration that which-way d etectors can appear to behave anomolously in the Bohm theory.
