Abstract

We investigate the feasibility of using low energy gamma rays from neutron capture to localize slabs inside samples. A new system based on two gamma ray detectors with 2D collimators to be tested at the INES beamline at the pulsed neutron source ISIS (Oxford, UK) is described. The system provides a localization of slabs inside extended samples by using gamma ray self-absorption. Geant4 Monte Carlo simulations of the beamline were carried out to model gamma spectra from test samples.
