Neutron tomography is considered as an alternative to X-ray tomography in the study of paleontologic and geologic objects. Based on experimental data, a contrast scale of minerals and rocks, including those present in paleontologic objects, has been constructed for neutron tomography. Examples of application of neutron tomography of geologic objects are given, and the potentialities of the above methods are compared.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
