Neutron Radiography

Abstract

In order to perform the inspection explosive devices of H-I launch vehicles by neutron radiography, we employed Baby Cyclotron as a neutron generator for NRT. As a result of performance test utilizing moderator and a collimetor, approximate 3 × 105 n/cm2 sec thermal neutron flux were obtained on the film surface. The film size of radiograph should be 14″ × 17″ and a fine and clear image quality for the inspection of explosive devices was obtained. Furthermore, this apparatus is designed to emit neutron beam in dual directions, and it has increased radiographing efficiency.
