neutrongrafia
Neutrongrafia, also known as neutron radiography or neutron imaging, is a non-destructive testing technique that uses neutron beams to visualize the internal structure of objects. This method leverages the unique properties of neutrons—particularly their ability to penetrate materials that are opaque to conventional X-rays—making it valuable for inspecting dense or thick components.
The process involves directing a beam of neutrons through an object, where they interact differently depending
Neutrongrafia is commonly used in industries like aerospace, nuclear, and materials science for quality control, defect
Neutron sources for imaging typically come from nuclear reactors or specialized neutron generators, though spallation sources
While neutrongrafia offers unique advantages, it requires access to neutron facilities, which are less widely available
