Neutron scattering cross sections exhibit no quasielastic components when the scatterers move in one-dimensional Hamiltonian potentials. However, if the potential contains flattened regions, part of the inelastic spectrum appears as a pseudoquasielastic (PQE) component. In the present work we investigate the main features of this PQE component and discuss some of its main properties.
