摘要：

A novel neutron camera, based on a scintillation proportional imaging chamber equipped with a B-10 powder-coated cathode, is proposed. This instrument yields about three orders of magnitude brighter images for single thermal neutrons compared to the existing neutron cameras. It is shown that the prototype camera can perform neutron imaging with spatial and time resolutions of 760 mum (rms) and 1/30 s, respectively, at a thermal neutron flux of 10(6) n/cm2/s. It is also demonstrated that the prototype camera can perform neutron radiography in the extremely low neutron flux of 100 n/cm2/s by recognizing each single thermal neutron.
