National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Abstract	Since 2004 Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been developing fast-neutron imaging with an associated particle imaging DT neutron generator under the sponsorship of the US Department of Energy. The pixelated alpha detector embedded in the generator times and directionally tags some (5%) of the neutrons. These neutrons have been very useful for a wide variety of fast-neutron imaging measurements with various configurations of fissile and non-fissile materials. This paper reviews the development of the alpha detector and some past imaging measurements but focuses on the results of recent fast-neutron imaging measurements.
