Abstract
We present the experimental method conceived to measure high energy neutrons in the range (200 ≤ E ≤ 1600 MeV). The neutrons produce recoil protons in a liquid hydrogen converter. Momentum evaluation and identification of these protons are made by using a magnetic spectrometer equipped with plastic scintillators and three double-plane (X-Y) wire chambers. The response functions of the apparatus are determined using quasi-monoenergetic neutron beams produced by the break-up of deuterons or 3He on a Be target. The performance of the apparatus is illustrated in the form of a preliminary neutron spectrum.
