Description
Advanced diagnostic imaging techniques like tomography have become indispensable within scientific experimentation in fields such as applied nuclear physics and studies of condensed matter. Multi-probe tomography represents a cutting-edge modality that utilizes a range of probes, spanning from keV to MeV X-rays, thermal to MeV neutrons, electrons, protons, and more. As these various probes interact differently with matter, they provide complementary information, enabling accurate extraction of key observables such as material identifications, densities, and their distributions in the items. The realization of multiprobe tomography has been made possible through the parallel development of sophisticated algorithms for data fusion, including reconstruction from sparse data sets encountered in experiments with limited viewing angles. In this presentation, we will delve into the concept of multiprobe tomography and its practical applications. We will discuss our results of dual-probe tomography (neutron and X-ray) for studying the electrochemical features of Zn-based battery technologies. Based on that, we will then discuss the applicability in nuclear safeguards and nonproliferation, and in other relevant scientific fields.
