Abstract

Einstein's theory of general relativity and quantum theory form the two major pillars of modern physics. However, certain inertial properties of a particle's intrinsic spin are inconspicuous while the inertial properties of mass are well known. Here, by performing a neutron interferometric experiment, we observe phase shifts arising as a consequence of the spin's coupling with the angular velocity of a rotating magnetic field. The resulting phase shifts linearly depend on the frequency of the rotation of the magnetic field. Our results agree well with the predictions derived from the Pauli - Schrödinger equation.
