Abstract
Two modular antineutron detectors have been built and used to detect t he low energy antineutrons produced in the charge-exchange reaction pp bAR --> nnBAR in an experiment at LEAR. A novel calibration method has been used to measure the absolute efficiencies of the detectors, and allows for a precise measurement of the reaction differential cross-se ction.
