Research Abstract |
An epithermal neutron camera based on energy-filtered imaging with gas electron multipliers was developed. Epithermal neutron imaging is achievable without time-of-flight detection of neutrons by using a resonance filter and a thermal neutron absorber. This technique is applicable to compact accelerator-based neutron sources. Epithermal neutron imaging was demonstrated using the Ag resonance filter and the B4C sheet as a thermal neutron absorber . Coded aperture imaging for epithermal neutron was also investigated based on numerical calculation model of the camera.
