Abstract

The aim of this work was to investigate experimentally feasibility of realizing and prospects of real time fast neutron radiography with a portable neutron generator and a luminescent CCD-detector. Description of the used equipment and examples of radiographic images are presented. Perspective application of the equipment for visualizing light materials shielded by heavy ones in the field of non- destructive inspection was demonstrated. Feasibility to exploit x-rays emission of portable generators was revealed as well.
