PF2

Ultracold neutrons with wavelengths around 1000 Å have several unique features: one of them is that they are totally reflected from the surface of most materials under any angle of incidence. This offers the possibility of storing neutrons in so called neutron bottles (or traps) for the observation of several fundamental characteristics of the neutron itself.
