Fast neutron and γ-ray backscatter radiography for the characterization of corrosion-born defects in oil pipelines

In this research, a combined fast-neutron/γ-raybackscatter imaging technique is described. The aim of this work is to understand corrosion defects in pipelines by measuring differences in the scattered radiation flux, generated when different steel thicknesses are irradiated by a neutron and γ-ray f...
