DETECTOR OF PENETRATING RADIATIONS Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC G01T1/20 G01N23/02 

FIELD: technology for non--destructive control of materials and goods by non-destructive methods, possible use for detection of their flaws in industrial and field situations, and also for detection of hazardous substances at control posts, railroad stations, in airports and customs.

SUBSTANCE: in detector of penetrating radiations filament module is made in form of combined luminescent transforming screen, scintillating filaments of which are composed of serially connected sections of various types of scintillating materials, filaments being covered in a layer of phosphor and made in form of truncated cone or truncated straight pyramid. Device contains not less than two optical channels made in form of serially positioned input projection objective with light filter, image amplifier, scaling objective and charge connection device matrix.

EFFECT: increased spatial resolution, expanded functional capabilities of detector, simultaneous registration of different types of penetrating radiation: fast neutrons, and/or thermal neutrons, and/or roentgen and gamma rays.
