Abstract
This work is about neutron astronomy. The registration of high energy neutrons can be used to investigate gas and dust components of the Kuiper belt. A new method for studying the diffuse matter in space based on observing high energy neutrons is analyzed. The high energy neutrons (with energies of hundreds of Gev) can travel distances comparable to the distance between the Earth and the Kuiper belt. A background of neutrons (at these energies) from beyond the Solar System is limited by decay. It is shown that the expected flux of high energy neutrons can be recorded by facilities using the data on the density of the gas and dust component obtained when analyzing the trajectories of space probes.
