Parameters Evaluation of Neutron Pinhole Imaging System Based on Geant4

Article Preview

Abstract:

Neutron imaging by large pinhole is an important part for image acquisition and high-speed transmission in process of fast radiation. In order to get desirable results in experiments, it is necessary to judge performance of various designs qualitatively or quantitatively before experiments. In this paper, we simulate the millimeter-level pinhole imaging system based on Geant4 and analyze the effects of system parameters on imaging. The numerical results can provide theoretical foundation for system designing and simulation data for image analyzing.
