Theory of Multiple Small-Angle Neutron Scattering with Account for Pseudomagnetic Interaction

Puntos clave

• The aim is to analyze small-angle neutron scattering by considering pseudomagnetic interactions and their effects on neutron polarization.
• Constructed a kinetic equation for small-angle neutron scattering.
• Examined scattering at a scattering center with collinear neutron and nuclear polarization.
• Evaluated the impact of pseudomagnetic nuclear fields on scattering behavior.
• Identified that spin neutron scattering correlates with the average value of pseudomagnetic nuclear fields.
• Demonstrated that field fluctuations can lead to neutron depolarization.
