A new compact time-of-flight neutron detector is being planned for the identification and energy measurement of neutrons produced in nucleus-nucleus interactions at energies up to 4 AGeV at the BM@N experiment, located at the Nuclotron (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, Russia). This detector will be used to measure neutron yields and azimuthal flows, which should be sensitive to the equation of state of dense nuclear matter, as shown in various theoretical models It is proposed to use plastic scintillators produced at JINR and IFTP and silicon photomultipliers with a sensitive area of 6 × 6 mm2 for photon registration, one for each scintillation cell. To achieve the required neutron energy resolution (of the order of several percent) in the energy range up to 4 GeV, the time resolution of scintillation detectors should be 100−150 ps. The concept of a time-of-flight neutron detector is discussed. The results of measurements of the light yield and time resolution of several scintillation detector specimens of various sizes and two types of silicon photomultipliers are presented.
