Neutron Radiography

Abstract

The equipments for neutron radiography using a 1-MeV Van de Graaff type accelerator and a 18-MeV electron linac of the Radiation Center of Osaka Prefecture (ORC) and Kyoto University Research Reactor (KUR) were set up. The characteristics of neutron beam and the radiographic image qualities with various films available were measured by a Beam Purity Indicator and a Sensitivity Indicator approved by ASTM and a System Image Quality Indicator devised by Barton.
