Active coded aperture neutron imaging
IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record
Because of their penetrating power, energetic neutrons and gamma rays (>-1 MeV) offer the best possibility of detecting highly shielded or distant special nuclear material (SNM). Of these, fast neutrons offer the greatest advantage due to their very low and well understood natural background. We are investigating a wholly new approach to fast-neutron imaging - an active coded-aperture system that uses a coded mask composed of neutron detectors. The only previously demonstrated method for long-range fast neutron imaging is double-scatter imaging. Active coded-aperture neutron imaging should offer a highly efficient alternative for improved detection speed, range, and sensitivity. We will describe our detector including design considerations and present initial results from a lab prototype. ©2009 IEEE.
