A detector for high-resolution momentum measurements of neutrons in the energy range 0.2-1.0 GeV is being developed for the R3 B experiment at FAIR. Two solutions are currently being studied: A pure scintillator concept and an approach based on a sequence of converter material (iron) to produce secondary charged particles, and Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC’s) to detect these particles. Here, work on the latter solution is reported.
