Measurement of Paint Film Thickness on Prepainted Steel Sheet by Compton Scattered X-ray

Three-Dimensional Object Reconstruction from Compton Scattered Gamma-Ray Data

A new imaging principle for object reconstruction is proposed in Single Photon Emission Computer Tomography (SPECT) which is widely used in nuclear medicine. The quality of SPECT images is largely affected by many adverse factors among which chiefly Compton scattering of gamma rays. Recently we have proposed to exploit Compton scattered radiation to generate new data necessary for object recons...

Densitometry and temperature measurement of combustion gas by X-ray Compton scattering.

Measurement of combustion gas by high-energy X-ray Compton scattering is reported. The intensity of Compton-scattered X-rays has shown a position dependence across the flame of the combustion gas, allowing us to estimate the temperature distribution of the combustion flame. The energy spectra of Compton-scattered X-rays have revealed a significant difference across the combustion reaction zone,...

Determining the accuracy of measuring the thickness of steel plates using Compton scattering method

When there is limitation access to one side of the structure in industry, one of the best methods for thickness measurements is the Compton scattering. In this paper, due to the statistical behavior of dispersed beam counting, we discuss the accuracy of the measurement for steel thickness. Using the experimental method and comparing it with MCNP simulation code, the accuracy is obtained less th...

Surface Hardness Measurment and Microstructural Characterisation of Steel by X-Ray Diffraction Profile Analysis

An X-ray diffraction line will broaden considerably when steels change into martensitic structure on quenching. The results presented in this paper show that X-ray diffraction technique can be employed for a rapid and nondestructive measurement of hardness of hardened steel. Measurement on various quenched and tempered steels showed that the breadth of its diffraction peak increased with increa...
