报道了用声学方法测试物质中性的测量方法。该装置是基于一个球形电容器充满气体SF6激发振荡电场。该仪器已经过校准，测量了电极化率。假设中子衰变中的电荷守恒，实验给出了电子-质子电荷差的极限（p-e）小于或类似于1 x 10(21)，中子的电荷也有相同的极限。以前的测量经过严格审查，发现是不准确的。
Measurements to test the neutrality of matter by acoustic means are reported. The apparatus is based on a spherical capacitor filled with gaseous SF6 excited by an oscillating electric field. The apparatus has been calibrated measuring the electric polarizability. Assuming charge conservation in the beta decay of the neutron, the experiment gives a limit of epsilon(p-e) less than or similar to 1 x 10 (21) for the electron-proton charge difference, the same limit holding for the charge of the neutron. Previous measurements are critically reviewed and found to be inaccurate.
