[Neutron] Workshop: Neutron Imaging at the Spallation Neutron Source

[Ekkebus, Allen E.]

Neutron Imaging at the Spallation Neutron Source

November 3 2008

Spallation Neutron Source, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN

How can neutron imaging solve your challenging research and development
problems?

This Workshop is directed to a broad community of industries,
governmental laboratories and agencies, who wishes to use
non-destructive neutron imaging techniques at a future instrument at the
Spallation Neutron Source (SNS). Potential applications include - but
are not limited to: engineering, advanced material characterization,
fluid-flow and/or two-phase flow devices, automotive technology,
advanced manufacturing technology, applied sciences, aerospace, life and
biological sciences, national security applications, etc. Neutrons are
specifically well suited for imaging light atoms (hydrocarbons for
example) buried in heavy atoms, and are capable of characterizing fluid
flow (dynamics).  

 

The overall objectives of this Workshop are the following:

1.	Inform of the Spallation Neutron Source's intent to build a
world-leading neutron imaging facility, 
2.	Describe the capabilities of the proposed facility, 
3.	Understand needs from the community by active discussions with
attendees, and 
4.	Discuss investment options in the construction and operation of
the facility. 

 

Advance registration is required.  See the web site
http://neutrons.ornl.gov/conf/nisns2008/index.shtml for the draft agenda
and registration details.  Please contact Al Ekkebus, ekkebusae at ornl.gov
for additional information.

 

This Workshop follows the successful Imaging And Neutrons (IAN2006)
Workshop (details at http://neutrons.ornl.gov/workshops/ian2006/ ) that
demonstrated an emerging community interested in a wide variety of
applications utilizing neutron imaging.
