Abstract

In experiments on polarized neutron beams, the effects indicating the rotation of a fissile nucleus have been observed. The main factor for this conclusion is the asymmetry of the coincidence count between the particle detectors accompanying the fission and the fragment detectors when reversing the direction of polarization of the neutron beam causing the fission of the studied nuclei. According to the opinions of the discovery authors, the measured asymmetry can be caused by the shift of the angular distribution in the direction or against the direction of the nucleus deformation rotation axis. In most publications, this shift is explained by the rotation of the angular distribution of particles in the direction of rotation of the nuclear fission axis. This article provides a simple and obvious explanation.
