Abstract

Fast neutrons that are produced via compact neutron generators have been used for thermal and fast neutron radiographies. In order to investigate objects with different sizes and produce radiographs of variable qualities, the proposed facility has been considered with a wide range of values for the parameters characterizing the thermal and fast neutron radiographies. The proposed system is designed according to article 4 of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive 2002/95/EC, hence, excluded the use of cadmium and lead, and has been simulated using the MCNP4B code. The Monte Carlo calculations were carried out using three different neutron sources: deuterium-deuterium, deuterium-tritium, and tritium-tritium neutron generators.
