Abstract
Measurements of neutron polarization are reported for the reaction at 0° in which the incident beam is polarized with quantization axis perpendicular to the direction of motion. The beam polarization was described by , while beam intensities varied from 10 to 40 nA. At MeV the neutron polarization was measured to be +0.56±0.036 with respect to the quantization axis. At 3.9 MeV the polarization was zero, showing the influence of spin-flip interactions from the low-energy resonance. The measurements are related to polarization transfer and efficiency tensor functions for the reaction.
