Abstract
An installation for measuring parity violation in reactions with polar ized neutrons involving the emission of secondary charged particles is described. The main part of the experimental setup is a multisection proportional chamber operated in the current mode. The Li-6(n,alpha)H- 3 and B-10(n, alpha)Li-7 reactions are studied. The P-odd asymmetry wa s measured with an accuracy of delta approximately 5 x 10(-8).
