Dear Rietveld users
I wonder if anyone can get hold of this very historic paper for me
Halban, H. and Preiswerk, P. (1936) Preuve expérimentale de la diffraction des
neutrons. Comptes Rendus de l’Académie des Sciences, 203, 73-75.
It seems that in 1936 two groups, one in Columbia and one in Paris,
demonstrated that neutrons show wave-particle duality. Many people know about
the two groups who showed the electrons have wave-particle duality, and many
people knows the story of how it was shown that the photon shows wave-particle
duality. But very few people are aware of the same for the neutron (even
ChatGPT needs to be told the answer before it agrees that this work was carried
out).
The Colombia group’s work is easy to find in the literature, but the Paris
group’s paper has me stumped.
I want to write a little article about this but to be fair to the Paris group I
really ought to see their paper.
So I wonder, does anyone have access to a PDF copy of this paper. My efforts
have floundered!
Thanks for anyone who can try to obtain this. I feel these people should not be
so quickly forgotten.
With best wishes
Martin Dove
