DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Takalani Ndanduleni (University of Johannesburg)\nTh
 is study investigates the principle and capabilities of Dual Energy X-Ray 
 Radiography/Tomography when applied on nuclear and related materials. The 
 dual-energy X-ray technique is a significant improvement to X-ray imaging 
 systems and gives additional information on the composition of the object 
 being imaged. Within this technique\, two radiographs are obtained at two 
 distinct X-ray energies and are combined (divided\, subtracted) to give de
 tailed information about the material features with improvement of the ima
 ge contrast. \nX-rays for this research\, will be generated with a new 225
  kV microfocus X-ray system to be commissioned by June 2011 at the Nuclear
  Energy Cooperation of South Africa (Necsa). This system will be able to g
 enerate different peak energy X-rays at different anode target materials a
 t very small focal spot sizes in order to obtain high-resolution images.  
 Different X-ray filters will be utilized to shape the energy of the X-ray 
 beam for high energy X-rays to interact with the material.\nThis presentat
 ion focuses on the principles of X-ray generation with different anode mat
 erials and the utilization thereof in radiographs and tomograms.\n\nhttps:
