On the experimental search for neutron -- mirror neutron oscillations [PDF]
, 2006 Fast neutron-mirror neutron (n-n') oscillations were proposed recently as the explanation of the GZK puzzle. We discuss possible laboratory experiments to search for such oscillaions and to improve the present very weak constraints on the value of the n ...
