摘要
Different from X-rays,neutrons mainly interact with atomic nuclei and magnetic moments in materials.This makes neutron imaging a complementary contrast mechanism to X-ray imaging.Neutron imaging aims to infer the internal material information of the object by measuring the changes in neutron beam parameters,such as the intensity attenuation,polarization,scattering,and matter wave interference.It has a wide range of applications in industry such as the inspection of batteries,magnetic structure analysis,and strain mapping in alloys.
