摘要
We investigate anomalies ascribed to quantum entanglement phenomena recently reported in deep inelastc neutron scattering (DINS) measurements by an independent neutron technique on H2O/D2O mixtures. We performed transmission experiments to study several liquid H2O/D2O mixtures at room temperature in the epithermal energy range. We obtain the total cross sections of the mixtures, which are in agreement with the expected results according to the tabulated values within a 0.3% relative error. We observe no anomalies and stress the limitations of the validity of the data-processing procedures employed in the DINS experiments where the anomalies were reported.
