Abstract
Either the composition, the thickness or the density of a sample can be derived, given the other two are known, by measuring the attenuation of a given incident radiation intensity through the sample. However, in the case of neutron imaging, the separation of the transmitted intensity from the scattered intensity using scintillator-based detection systems is yet to be solved. Several methods have been proposed for the correction of disturbing neutron scattering, but they are only applicable to specific materials or require some a-priori knowledge of the sample. Here we present a method for white beam neutron imaging which compares transmitted neutron images at different distances from the scintillator to improve the quantification capabilities of neutron imaging.
