Introduction to Neutron Scattering

Neutron scattering is a powerful and direct means for investigating the vibrational, magnetic, and structural properties of materials. In this paper, I will present a brief introduction to neutron scattering. I will discuss why neutrons are important, how and where you get neutrons, and types of neutron scattering. This paper is meant as brief introduction into an interesting field of science t...

Discrete tomography in neutron radiography

Discrete tomography (DT) is an imaging technique for reconstructing discrete images from their projections using the knowledge that the object to be reconstructed contains only a few homogeneous materials characterized by known discrete absorption values. One of the main reasons for applying DT is that we will hopefully require relatively few projections. Using discreteness and some a priori in...

Neutron Radiography, Techniques and Applications

After describing the principles of the "in pool" and "dry" installations, techniques used in neutron radiography are reviewed. Use of converter foils with silver halide films for the direct and transfer methods is described. Advantages of the use of nitrocellulose film for radiographying radioactive objacts are discussed. Dynamic imaging is shortly reviewed. Standardization in the field of neut...
