Comment to the article "Possible Systematic Effects in Fomblin Coated Storage Cell Neutron Lifetime Measurements", Steve K. Lamoreaux [1]

The author of article discusses the possible systematic effects in our experiment using reference and picture from allegedly our publication. First of all this publication does not exist. The assumption of author about the probability of lower energy upscattering is in a rough contradiction (300 times) with our experimental limit which is extremely lower, about 6x10-9 per neutron collision. The second assumption of author concerning quasi-stable orbits of UCN with higher energy due to specular neutron reflection from trap wall is also in a rough contradiction with our experimental data clear demonstrated in our previous articles as well in the last very detailed article recently presented in the arXiv. We are very surprised that author discusses well known questions studied in our experiment in details.

Constraints on new interactions from neutron scattering experiments

Constraints for the constants of hypothetical Yukawa-type corrections to the Newtonian gravitational potential are obtained from analysis of neutron scattering experiments. Restrictions are obtained for the interaction range between 10^{-12} and 10^{-7} cm, where Casimir force experiments and atomic force microscopy are not sensitive. Experimental limits are obtained also for non-electromagnetic inverse power law neutron-nucleus potential. Some possibilities are discussed to strengthen these constraints.

On the experimental search for neutron -- mirror neutron oscillations

Fast neutron-mirror neutron (n-n') oscillations were proposed recently as the explanation of the GZK puzzle. We discuss possible laboratory experiments to search for such oscillaions and to improve the present very weak constraints on the value of the n-n' oscillation probability.
