Neutron Imaging Methods in Geoscience
Neutron imaging is a younger and also less known method than X‐ray imaging. Through the different attenuation behavior compared to X‐rays this method provides complementary information and may even provide another way to investigate a sample non‐destructively. The reasons are due to other contrast relations between different materials and isotopes or that the X‐rays are unable to penetrate the sample. The basic principles behind neutron radiography and tomography are explained. Also the main components of a neutron imaging system are described. The two neutron imaging beamlines at Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland, are presented to show the infrastructure and instrument palette that can be found at a state of the art neutron imaging beamline. An outlook is given to show future instrument developments like energy selective imaging and phase contrast enhancement. Finally, a collection of examples illustrates applications from soil physics, nuclear waste deposit planning, and mineralized fossils. minerals; radiography; tomography
