LWThe neutron-neutron and neutron-proton 'SO scattering lengths a , and 4rp, reepectively, were determined simultaneously from the neutron-deuteron breakup reaction. Their comparison with the recommended valuea obtained from "two-bodyw reactionti gives a measure of the importance of three-nucleon force effects in the three-nucleon continuum. In order to check on the reuult obtained for u,,,, from the "two-body" x'-d capture reaction, a new measurement was performed at LANL. Pmlimiiary results of the three experiments are given.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
