First results of micro-neutron tomography by use of a focussing neutron lens

Since the appearance of high flux neutron beams, scientists experimented wi th neutron radiography. This high beam flux combined with modern neutron to visible light converters leads to the possibility of performing fast neutr on microtomography. The first results of cold neutron tomography with a neu tron lens are presented in this article. Samples are rotated in the beam an d the projections are recorded with a neutron camera. The 3D reconstruction is performed with cone beam reconstruction software. (C) 2001 Elsevier Sci ence Ltd. All rights reserved.
