Re: neutron lifetime

[Bernhard Lauss <lauss@berkeley.edu>]

Dear Peter,

I checked, in J.Clark's thesis the
averaged final value for the effective experimental
neutron lifetime is given as l_n = 1868+-30 ns  => 1.7%
which results in l_op = 13.8 +- 1.6   10^4 s-1

The Saclay result was 2084+-30 ns => 1.5 %
both for liquid.

	Bernhard
