An exciting hint towards the solution of the neutron lifetime puzzle?
We revisit the neutron lifetime puzzle, a discrepancy between beam and bottle measurements of the weak neutron decay. Since both types of measurements are realized at different times after the nuclear production of free neutrons, we argue that the existence of an excited state could be responsible for the different lifetimes. We elaborate on the required properties of such a state and construct a concrete toy model with several of the required characteristics..
