Abstract
Possible systematic effects in experimental measurements of the lifetime of the neutron using magneto-gravitational traps to store ultracold neutrons have been discussed. Methods for the online detection of possible losses, including depolarization losses and a small heating of neutrons stored in a trap, have been proposed.
