Quantum states of neutrons bound in the magnetic field of a rectilinear current

Quantum states of neutrons bound in the magnetic field of a rectilinear current The spectrum and the wave functions of neutrons bound in the magnetic field of a thin rectilinear current filament are calculated analytically by solving a fourth-order Hamburger equation. Finite current cross sections are treated numerically: the bound states persist—a necessary prerequisite in view of possible experimental verifications of the theory. Two setups (i) a superconducting wire and (ii) a Church trap are proposed for obtaining these states experimentally.

Abstract

The spectrum and the wave functions of neutrons bound in the magnetic field of a thin rectilinear current filament are calculated analytically by solving a fourth-order Hamburger equation. Finite current cross sections are treated numerically: the bound states persist—a necessary prerequisite in view of possible experimental verifications of the theory. Two setups (i) a superconducting wire and (ii) a Church trap are proposed for obtaining these states experimentally. Some results on spin-1 magnetic surface states are presented.
