Neutron radiography has in recent years emerged as a useful and
complementary technology for radiation diagnosis. It is now
routinely used in industrial quality assurance and in support of
selected research and developmental activities. Conferences are
held on the subject, pertinent handbooks exist, and technical
papers appear regularly reporting on new developments. While
neutron radiography has indeed passed through the transition from a
scientific curiosity to technological relevance, it is a sign of
its continuing dynamic evolution that little material has appeared
which provides an integrated mathematical and physical analysis of
the subject possessing both an instructional as well as reference
function. It is our hope that this monograph will fill this need.
The distinctiveness of neutron radiography rests on the unique
interactions between neutrons and nuclei. This leads to some
special relationships between the material and geometrical
properties of an object and the neutron radiographic image. The
evolution of a technical discipline demands that specific
conceptual constructs be developed and their mathematical
representations examined and compared with controlled experiments.
Experience has convinced us that a particular and substantial body
of knowledge has accumulated endowing neutron radiography with the
essential foundations of a unique mathematical and physical
science. Our scientific and professional involvement in neutron
radiography began some 15 years ago when the senior author (A.A.H.)
found himself with convenient access to the McMaster University
Nuclear Reactor and research support from the Government of Canada.
