Nondestructive testing by neutron radiography, improvement of performance with cold neutrons

Description

Generally industrial neutron radiography is carried out with thermal neutron, but it is very interesting to use cold neutrons to change the attenuation and the contrast of many materials. This paper shows industrial areas of interest for cold neutron radiography and advantages of a neutron guide for this purpose. The main characteristics of the industrial neutron radiography associated with the ORPHEE reactor are described

Abstract (French)

On effectue generalement la neutronographie a l'aide de neutrons thermiques, mais il est tres interessant d'utiliser des neutrons froids pour faire varier le contraste et l'attenuation de nombreux materiaux. On montre les domaines industriels interessants en radiographie aux neutrons froids et les avantages d'un guide a neutrons. On decrit les principales caracteristiques de l'installation de neutrographie du reacteur Orphee
