A precision measurement of the neutron-neutron scattering length from the reaction [pi]-d -> [gamma] nn

A measurement of the ¹S₀ neutron-neutron scattering length a[sub nn] has been carried out at TRIUMF by studying the shape of the photon energy spectrum from the reaction π⁻d —» γnn in the region near the endpoint. A 40.5 M eV pion beam was degraded and stopped in a liquid deuterium target and all...
