Hi, I have some questions regarding this topic. What are the possible applications of ultra-cold neutrons?, that is, What can ultra-cold neutrons be useful for?. Is the topic of ultra-cold neutrons related to nuclear physics?
They are useful to study the neutron itself… and many more. Have a look at this paper:

Thank you for your reply. I had a look at the paper. It´s interesting. I expect to read it completely during this week. A question, approximately How long would it take to construct an ultra-cold neutron source?.
Not so long if you already have a nuclear reactor :
Ok, thank you. I´ll keep that in mind.
Hi, I have finished reading the paper. It was a good read; however, i have some doubts; for example, based on the information in the paper as well as information from the internet, I can see that there is a discrepancy between theory and experiment, right?; What would be the implications of such a discrepancy?. Another question: Does the study of the electric dipole moment of any subatomic particle (not just neutrons) have far-reaching implications in physics?, What would those implications be?
Dear Alfredo,
not to discourage your curiosity but given that is a Geant4 forum, your questions are probably much better addressed by your local Lecturer/Professor in subatomic physics.

Ok, thank you very much for the advice.
