Abstract: In the quantum theory,the quantum Zeno effect plays an important role in dealing with the quantum information.In this paper,we show how it impacts the decay of a neutron at different time intervals between measurements,and it can be seen that the quantum Zeno effect may be caused by frequent measurement.

Key words: quantum Zeno effect, neutron, antineutron
