Application of Tagged Neutron Method for Material Analysis on the Conveyor
https://doi.org/10.56304/S2079562922050037
Abstract
The results of the application of the tagged neutron method for remote non-destructive analysis of the elemental composition of a material on a conveyor are discussed. The tagged neutron method consists in irradiation of the substance under study with fast neutrons with an energy of 14 MeV and registration of the induced characteristic gamma radiation. Neutron tagging is carried out by an alpha detector built into a neutron generator.
