The 5N neutral particle beamline at the U-70 accelerator (Institute for High Energy Physics), which has been designed to produce a high-intensity neutron beam with the highest possible energy, is described. The average neutron energy is ∼51 GeV, and the beam intensity is up to 107 neutrons per spill. For several years, this beam has been used to investigate charmed particles and narrow baryon resonances in neutron-nucleus interactions and search for exotic multiquark states with the aid of the EXCHARM spectrometer.
