This article describes the new neutron imaging facility constructed at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, presenting the design, main parameters, and recent results of neutron radiography and tomography experiments conducted at the facility.
The goal of this article is to describe the new neutron imaging facility constructed on the 5th radial beamline of the WWR-SM research reactor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan (Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan). The neutron beam with the dimensions of 90 x 90 mm(2) is formed by the collimator system, the characteristic parameter L/D is 600. The two mirror detector system is based on the (LiF)-Li-6/Zn(Cd)S:Ag scintillation screen and the high-resolution ProLine PL-09000 CCD camera. The design of the experimental facility, the main parameters, and recently obtained results of the neutron radiography and tomography experiments are presented.
