Abstract
IMAT is a neutron imaging and diffraction instrument of the ISIS Target Station 2 with applications in a broad range of materials sciences, engineering and cultural heritage investigations. Its imaging camera, topic of this paper, allows the acquisition of radiographs, tomographs and energy-selective images thanks to the pulsed nature of the ISIS neutron beam. The advantage of using neutrons as a radiation source makes possible to investigate samples made out of heavy metals or hydrogenous materials, not possible with conventional imaging techniques that use X-rays.
