Using the uncertainty relation, calculate the localization energy of the neutron in the nucleus, i.e. the kinetic energy that a neutron must have in order to enter the nucleus. The size of the core is about 10-14 m. Doesn't this result contradict experiment, according to which even thermal neutrons, whose kinetic energy is about 10-2 eV, penetrate into the core?
