Description

The analysis of 11 neutron radiographs, five of pin CEP-E1 no. 4 and six of pin CEP-E1 no. 7 are presented. The dimensions of the gaps between adjacent pellets were determined by three methods: projection microscopy measurements, the derivative method and the convolution method. The errors associated with the gap width measurements were in some cases over 100%. (author)
