  "abstract": "We analyse a recently reported neutron interference experiment to measure a geometric phase and attempt to bring out the inadequacy of the ``phase modulo 2\\pi\" approach to the geometric phase. A modified neutron interferometer experiment to observe 2n\\pi phase changes of topological origin resulting from closed circuits around singularities in the parameter space of the experiment is proposed.",
