Abstract
Abstract The increased capabilities of computer technology have opened new possibilities for the development of reliable systems for the evaluation of digitized images. A microcomputer controlled system for the track evaluation in etched track detectors was set up at the J. Stefan Institute. The digital image processing program which performs several image processing and analyzing operations was developed and applied to the evaluation of 6 Li(n, α) reaction product tracks in the CR-39 detector. Distinction between various types of charged particle tracks, based on size and average brightness of a single track, is introduced. By automatic counting, the standard error of 15% can be achieved for both alpha and triton track densities, compared to 50 and 15%, respectively, in manual counting.
