Neutron interactions and contrast production in neutron radiography
The usefulness of neutron radiography as a nondestructive engineering tool is heavily dependent on how a neutron reaches the image plane. Neutron interactions such as scattering and absorption, within a neutron radiography facility or a test part, affect the contrast of the resulting image generated by the process. It is important that the radiographer has a general understanding of how neutrons interact with matter to produce a quality image utilizing a neutron beam. 4 refs.
