评“地球引力场中子量子态的测量“

Comment on "Measurement of quantum states of neutrons in the Earth's gravitational field"

Johan Hansson, David Olevik, Christian Türk, Hanna Wiklund

摘要:

在V.V. Nesvizhevsky等人的论文中,物理评论D 67,102002(2003),认为在地球的引力场中子的最低量子态已被实验确定。虽然这很可能是正确的,但为了堵住所有漏洞,必须调查结果的所有替代解释,因为这是有史以来第一个声称观察到引力量子态的实验。在这里,我们表明,在实验装置中的几何效应可以模仿归因于重力的结果。修改的实验设置,以关闭这些可能的漏洞建议。

英文摘要:

In the paper by V.V. Nesvizhevsky et al., Phys. Rev. D 67, 102002 (2003), it is argued that the lowest quantum state of neutrons in the Earth's gravitational field has been experimentally identified. While this is most likely correct, it is imperative to investigate all alternative explanations of the result in order to close all loopholes, as it is the first experiment ever claimed to have observed gravitational quantum states. Here we show that geometrical effects in the experimental setup can mimic the results attributed to gravity. Modifications of the experimental setup to close these possible loopholes are suggested.
