Burkhard Schillinger, Instrument Scientist, Technical University Although neutron imaging has been in use since the 1950s, two dimensional (2D), film-based images were the main format until the 1990s.

Neutron stars are very small and dense stars, where roughly half a million earth masses of material are squeezed into a city-sized volume with a radius of 10 km.

The merger of two neutron stars is among the leading candidate sites for synthesizing the heavier elements on the periodic table through the rapid-neutron-capture process. The image shows two ...

Digital images are produced using a CCD camera system in conjunction with a fast response LiF neutron converter screen. Specimens to be radiographed are placed on a large, precision positioning table, ...

The Antennae Galaxies are filled with black holes and neutron stars, speeding up the process of star formation and change. Saturn's rings, first observed by Galileo 400 years ago, have since become ...
