Abstract :
A Ramsey apparatus for cold, polarised neutrons is described, which enables us to measure neutron precession angles with an absolute accuracy of about 1 ∘ . This is necessary to perform a planned high-accuracy measurement of the incoherent neutron scattering length b i , d of the deuteron. The performance of the apparatus is demonstrated in systematic stability measurements as well as in two selected examples using samples containing polarised nuclear spins.
