Specific embodiment
To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with specific embodiment, and reference Attached drawing, the present invention is described in further detail.
The invention discloses a kind of white light neutron imaging method, the white light neutron refers to comprising from eV to tens or even hundred The continuum of million eV and the neutron beam with pulse timing structure, method includes the following steps:
Step 11, impulse type accelerator neutron generator emit the pulsed neutron beam of wide power spectrum and record launch time;
Step 12, detector detect and measure pulsed neutron beam, obtain position and the arrival time of each neutron, and will be every The position of a neutron and arrival time are transferred to processing unit;
Step 13, processing unit obtain the energy of the neutron according to the arrival time of each neutron and the launch time of record Information is grouped all neutrons by energy, and obtains the neutron flux at different location according to the location information of neutron
Step 14 places sample between impulse type accelerator neutron generator and detector, repeats step 11-13, is put Neutron flux when setting sample at different locationAccording to instituteRatio and energy grouping information when placing sample it is raw At a series of continuous neutron transmission images with neutron energy information.
Above-mentioned detector is array type detector, by neutron probe array, photoelectric converter and electronics read-out device Composition, wherein neutron probe array is formed by more neutron probe regular arrays, the measurement range and pulse of neutron probe array The energy range of neutron source matches.
Preferably, above-mentioned neutron probe is made of scintillator and conduction optical fiber, and scintillator receives neutron and generates scintillation light, Scintillation light is through conduction fiber optic conduction to photoelectric converter.
Preferably, above-mentioned scintillator is fast scintillator, can be capillary type liquid scintillator, plastic scintillant, boracic Scintillator or lithium glass.
Above-mentioned neutron linear transducer array receives the neutron in measurement energy range in single pulse, and measures neutron one by one Arrival time and position.
Above-mentioned electronics read-out device is used to measure the arrival of all neutrons of neutron probe array detection in each pulse Time and location information, and the arrival time of all neutrons of measurement and location information are transmitted to processing unit.
Above-mentioned impulse type accelerator neutron generator is the large-scale spallation neutron target based on high power proton precessional magnetometer, pulse weight Complex frequency be it is several to tens Hz, proton beam energies in 500MeV or more, or for based on accelerate deuterium beam small-sized high current straight line add The neutron source of fast device, pulse recurrence frequency are several to tens kHz.Wherein practice shooting generation pulsed neutron by appropriate slowing down shape It is irradiated on sample after beam-based and suitable distance at the wide power spectrum neutron in eV-MeV energy area.
Wherein it is possible to the launch time of neutron is obtained using different methods, the time practiced shooting such as proton beam or deuterium beam.? In some cases, it also can use scintillation detector while the association gamma that detection comes from neutron source, these association gammas be complete It can reflect the launch time of neutron, they are more early than neutron to arrive detector, therefore the arrival time that also can use association gamma is anti- Push away the launch time of neutron beam.
Different scintillators can be used according to the difference of neutron energy range to cover the extremely wide energy of white light neutron in above-mentioned detector Area, the position of detector measurement transmission neutron and arrival time, neutron location distribution information will be used to provide the letter of sample structure Breath, arrival time mutually tie with beam burst target practice time (launch time recorded) provided by impulse type accelerator neutron generator Close and the flight time of neutron be provided, and the flight time of neutron with neutron energy be it is completely corresponding, in this way and can provide The information of sample nuclide composition.For large-scale spallation neutron target, neutron fluence rate is very high, needs longer flying distance to reduce Moment neutron density on detector, longer flying distance are also beneficial to the accurate survey of fast neutron and middle low energy neutron energy Amount.For small neutron source, neutron fluence rate is not high, and sample and detector should be placed close to neutron-producing target, such as 3-10 meters, because adopting It is RF linear accelerator, the micropulse structure of deuterium beam can guarantee the neutron time of flight resolution ratio control of 1-10MeV In a few percent, so as to differentiate the formant of light nucleus element.
Why above-mentioned detector is array type detector, is because using the neutron beam of burst pulse, neutron passes through sample The moment fluence rate reached on detector is very high, and needing could be same using the array type that the small probe unit of Fast Time Response forms When measure position and the temporal information of each neutron.For large-scale spallation neutron target, itself has good time structure, weight Complex frequency is tens Hz, and tens ns of proton pulse width, flying distance is longer, is easier to realize the flight time of single neutron Detection;And for small linear accelerator deuterium neutron source, it needs to carry out accelerator special setting, such as uses line chopper Most lines in the long beam burst of ms magnitude are divided into many sections to dispose, make line with several~tens kHz's Macro pulse structure both reduces shielding requirements to reduce the intensity of neutron source, is easy to use, is also beneficial to the flight of single neutron The detection of time method.
Why can according to the difference of neutron energy range using the one group or two groups detector with different scintillators, be because Fast neutron (hundred keV to tens MeV energy area) and middle low energy neutron energy area (eV- hundred keV energy area) are measured simultaneously currently without effective Detector.The effective ways of measurement fast neutron are using the fast scintillation detector with shorter pulse times structure, as liquid dodges Bright body EJ-301, as shown in Figure 1, the die-away time of liquid scintillator is generally 3-5ns, it is small to the time response of incident neutron In 100ns, and to the time width < 20ns of the fast composition of the signal pulse of incident neutron, using electronics read-out device measure into The pulse signal for hitting sub- generation extracts arrival time of the most fast position of the pulse signal rising front as neutron, error Range is less than 3ns.The measurement error of neutron energy depends on time error and total flight time namely time error, neutron Thus energy and flying distance can calculate corresponding energy resolution, for 2.07MeV fast neutron fly 76 meters under conditions of its Energy resolution is 3.2keV, this energy resolution is enough to portray as a relatively narrow formant (FWHM=such as C-12 nucleic in Fig. 2 12.3keV), therefore can be by whether containing the nucleic in the method resolved materials of resonance spectrum.
Middle low energy neutron can equally be used using corresponding scintillator (scintillator, the lithium glass of such as boracic -10) The formant of heavy element in resolution, the formant of middle heavy element is usually in a few keV~eV magnitudes, as Fig. 4 is93NbFormant Structure, since the flying speed of middle low energy neutron is slow, total flight time is long, energy resolution will be than above-mentioned fast-neutron range more Height, therefore equally also meet the formant testing requirements of these nucleic.
The above-mentioned neutron transmission image with neutron energy information is the space two-dimensional distribution map with Continuous Energy feature Picture.Since neutron probe has certain probability to measure the neutron beaten on it, need to exist to probe in detector preparation process The neutron detection efficiency curve in different energy areas carries out scale.In view of the heterogeneity of neutron beam spot at sample, meter can be passed through The ratio between the neutron flux for calculating after sample is placed and placing each position in preceding detector plane, can be obtained the accurate of specimen material Neutron transmission image can obtain one group of transmission image with energy resolution in conjunction with flight time measurement in the present invention.
Above-mentioned white light neutron imaging method combination CT technology can obtain the neutron cross section information of each space lattice of sample, This information is exactly the atomic nucleus feature of specimen material, and material can be uniquely determined by being compared using it with atomic nucleus database The nuclide composition of material, therefore this is a kind of completely new nondestructive material analysis method.
Based on above-mentioned white light neutron imaging method, another aspect of the present invention discloses a kind of non-destructive testing side of material composition Method, the material are located on rotatable platform, comprising the following steps:
Step 21, rotation are located at the sample on rotatable platform, obtain different angle using white light neutron imaging method and place Neutron flux when sample at different location, a series of continuous neutrons with neutron energy information for obtaining different angle are saturating Penetrate image;
Step 22, processing unit are according to a series of continuously with the neutron transmission figures of neutron energy information of different angle Picture obtains the transmission information of space cell lattice point using cross sectional reconstruction algorithm;
Step 23, processing unit by the total cross-section data of the transmission information of space cell lattice point and nuclear data depositary Radionuclide into Row comparison, obtains the composition of material.
Above-mentioned rotation is located at the sample on rotatable platform, then can obtain the imaging results of different angle, processing unit benefit The transmission information of space cell lattice point can be obtained with cross sectional reconstruction algorithm (i.e. so-called CT technology).In image analysis, adopt Different constituents are marked with different colours, and are compared with the total cross-section data of nuclear data depositary Radionuclide, it can be intuitively The three-dimensional structure and material species for obtaining sample form.
