What's New?

October 16-19, 2006
National Institute of Standards and Technology
Gaithersburg, MD 20899
The field of neutron imaging has a broad scope of applications and has played a
pivotal role in visualizing and quantifying hydrogenous masses in metallic
matrices. The field continues to expand into new applications with the
installation of new neutron imaging facilities, the investigation of new
imaging techniques and developments in neutron detector technology. This is the
8th World Conference on Neutron Radiography, a series of
conferences held every 4 years. The 7th WCNR was held in Rome,
Italy, hosted by the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and
the Environment in September 2002, with over 100 participants from
28 countries. Some of the main topics to be discussed are:
- new neutron imaging facilities
- detector development
- phase, stroboscopic, and other novel imaging techniques
- imaging for the hydrogen economy
- industrial imaging applications
- tomography and image reconstruction/analysis methods
- security applications
- fast neutron radiography
- miscellaneous
The conference will consist of oral presentations and a poster session.
Proceedings of the conference will be available online and in hard copy.

IAN2006 is planned as a follow up to the WCNR-8 and is directed to a broad-based
international scientific community who are interested in the potential
application of novel imaging techniques using neutrons with a particular
emphasis on the capabilities provided by next generation neutron sources. The
workshop will take as a base the status of the well established techniques such
as neutron radiography and holography (summarized from WCNR-8), and develop
concepts for new techniques including, but not limited to, microscopy,
holography, neutron stimulated emission computed tomography, diffraction
imaging, and neutron magnetic resonance. More information on the program and
scholarships may be found at IAN2006.
