RESEARCH STUDY ON NEUTRON INTERACTIONS IN MATTER AS RELATED TO IMAGE FORMATION. First Technical Progress Report, July 1, 1961-September 30, 1961

ABS>The image quality as a function of the parameters of neutron scattering and image detector resolution was studied using an optical technique which simulates the neutron intensity pattern at the image plane for a radiographic object containing both neutron absorption and scattering. Data were obtained for the effects of detector resolutions ranging from 2 to l00 mils on the images of an ideal absorption, an absorption edge followed by thick neutron scatterers, and a small absorption strip image. A large-area neutron beam exposure facility is briefly described. (D.L.C.)
