title = "Neutron imaging of hydrogen in steels",
abstract = "Transmission images with neutrons show a high contrast between hydrogen and iron when using state-of-the-art scintillator materials and digital cameras. Monitoring the 2D hydrogen distribution evolution with good temporal resolution is possible if a high flux of neutrons is provided. The mass transport of hydrogen can be quantified by converting the intensity distribution of the images in a hydrogen concentration distribution by using standards with known composition and similar thickness. Then neutron radiography can be used quantitatively as a non-destructive measurement technique to determine diffusion coefficients e.g. for hydrogen in steel. We report about measurements at Research Reactors in Germany. The capabilities and limitations, as well as perspectives of this method will be discussed and illustrated with selected examples.",
