In this paper, dispersion forces between neutrons are suggested as a probe of the fundamental structure of spacetime. Corrections to standard expressions for the interparticle potentials are obtained through computer algebra system strategies and a novel heuristic argument for comparison with field theory computations. It is confirmed that, to first order in the deformation parameter, the unretarded ([Formula: see text]) van der Waals potential is unchanged. The modified retarded Casimir–Polder potential, obtained from the minimal length zero-point field, compares satisfactorily in both sign and magnitude with rigorous calculations. It is shown that low energy neutron scattering can provide a gain in excess of [Formula: see text] orders of magnitude over atomic physics experiments in constraining corrections due to the existence of a minimal length.

Casimir-Polder 力与中子的最小长度特征

在本文中，建议将中子之间的色散力作为对时空基本结构的探测。通过计算机代数系统策略和用于与场论计算进行比较的新启发式论证来获得对粒子间势的标准表达式的校正。已经证实，对于变形参数的一阶，未延迟的（[公式：见正文]）范德华势不变。从最小长度零点场获得的改进的延迟 Casimir-Polder 势在符号和幅度上与严格的计算进行了令人满意的比较。结果表明，低能中子散射可以提供超过[公式：
