Abstract
An experiment, analogous to that of Cimmino et al., is proposed to measure the phase shift induced by static electric fields on the passage of neutrons through an interferometer when the path-enclosed linear charge density is zero. A finite shift is predicted and discussed in light of the Aharonov-Casher result.Keywords
