Abstract (French)

Le but de cette etude est l'amelioration du controle par rayons X. On decrit l'installation et les essais sont effectues avec des echantillons d'uranium ayant jusqu'a 9 mm d'epaisseur. On compare les performances avec celles obtenues par une source d'iridium 192: le contraste est meilleur et les temps d'exposition reduits (112 graphiques et 6 tableaux)
