t] is polarization of a target, s is a neutron spin, and k is its wave vector. Here, s is the neutron spin, I the spin of the target nuclei, and k the neutron wave vector. For our interference simulations in the plane wave theory, we extended our previous program [4] prepared with the decomposition of the wave vector to the parallel and the perpendicular components to the sample surface. |
