| Abstract Scope |
The MIT Reactor operates as an NSUF user facility for materials irradiation and post-irradiation examination. We have recently commissioned a neutron radiography and tomography beamline at the reactor to investigate nuclear materials. Neutron radiography is particularly sensitive to light elements such as H and Li. In this poster, I will present the current capabilities of the beamline. As an example, I will show our experiments measuring hydrogen loss in metal hydride rods irradiated in the core of the MIT Reactor. |
