Abstract
We have carried out quantum beat experiments using cold neutron spin i nterferometers installed at KURRI and JAERI. Quantum beat profiles (ti me-dependent interference fringe) with frequencies from 20 mu Hz to 34 kHz were observed, which correspond to energy difference 8.271 x 10(- 20) and 1.406 x 10(-10) eV. Delayed choice experiment using quantum be at are proposed as an application. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
