Technical applications of an imaging Gamma-ray Compton Backscattering device and simulation using GEANT4
(2013) 10th Latin American Symposium on Nuclear Physics and Applications, LASNPA 2013 In Proceedings of Science- Abstract
The γ-backscattering imaging techniques are alternative methods to the transmission techniques to determine the amount and distribution of matter in objects. Images obtained with a γ-backscattering device are presented. In order to increase the understanding of the image formation process and to assist in the data analysis, a simulation of the camera was developed using the Geant4 simulation toolkit. Simulation and experimental results suggest that the device has promising potential industrial applications.
