Valeri is, of course, correct (see comment below). The 2-gamma 
annihilation is a rare process. The annihilation to mesons is dominant. 
Still, one should see clustered e.m. energy as there should be a number 
(many?) of pi0's generated, and if the entire energy (e.m. + hadr.) is 
contained in the EC the response should still be about 1.9 GeV, but more 
distributed in space.

Hi Volker,

The neutron-antineutron annihilation at rest results in the production 
of mesons, primarily pions. It is not electromagnetic process like in 
electron-positron annihilation. The annihilation to photons is very rare 
process.

Valery

    Will,
      Beautiful!
      I wonder if anyone had a look at the energy information for
    antineutrons hitting the EC. They will have to lose the anti-matter
    energy by annihilating at rest with a neutron into a pair of 940 MeV
    photons and leaving in the calorimeter an e.m. energy cluster of
    1.88 GeV. It would be a direct measurement of the
    neutron-antineutron annihilation.
