Abstract
A method of carrying out high-precision measurements of crystal lattice par ameters, at least an order of magnitude more sensitive than conventional ne utron techniques using Larmor precession is presented. We show that the met hod can be used for absolute and relative measurements of the lattice const ants and mosaicity and report some ew results demonstrating the power of th e method.
