Abstract

As a new technique the pulsed neutron transmission spectroscopic radiography is attractive in the research fields of energy-resolved neutron radiography. The imaging technique is based on the energy-analysis of neutrons by time-of-flight (TOF) method. The neutron transmission spectrum includes the Bragg scattering edges with the crystallographic structure and texture information. We developed a high performance high-frame-rate camera for this neutron imaging at an electron linac pulsed neutron source in Hokkaido University.
