Abstract
A compact inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion neutron source was developed. Imaging tests using the cylindrical IEC neutron source were conducted with the indirect imaging plate (IP) method using dysprosium foil and an imaging plate. An array of B4C powder contained in a stainless-steel blade and Cd pins was successfully imaged. To calculate thermal neutron flux of the device, we tested multiple types of IP and IP scanners with the indirect IP method to create a calibration curve, and it was confirmed that dental IP scanners, which are more widely used than industrial ones, can be applied to the indirect IP method.
