Since neutrons and protons have about the same mass, wouldn't one expect a neutron encountering a proton to pass considerable part of it's energy to the proton, thus slowing down considerably (and thus not showing up as a scattered neutron)? >In condensed matter containing hydrogen, theoretical considerations suggest >the presence of attosecond entanglement, in which the quantum dynamics of >the scattering protons and the surrounding particles are all connected; >this in turn changes the nature of the scattering results. > > > > > Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
