Abstract:It is known that a lithium-6 (6Li) absorbs a neutron
and is divided into a triton and an alpha particle. However, the
trajectories of the produced tritons have not yet been imaged in
real time and high resolution. We developed an ultrahigh-resolution
imaging system that can clearly observe the trajectories of neutron
induced particles in real time. The developed system is based on a
magnifying unit and a cooled electron multiplying charge-coupled
device (EM-CCD) camera combined with a 6Li plate a… Show more
