Abstract

Ghost imaging is demonstrated using a poly-energetic reactor source of thermal neutrons. The method presented enables position resolution to be incorporated, into a variety of neutron instruments that are not position resolving. In an imaging context, ghost imaging can be beneficial for dose reduction and resolution enhancement. We also demonstrate a super-resolution variant of the method, namely a parallel form of neutron ghost imaging, with the ability to significantly increase the spatial resolution of a pixelated detector such as a CCD or CMOS camera. Extensions of our neutron ghost-imaging protocol are discussed in detail and include neutron ghost tomography, neutron ghost microscopy, dark-field neutron ghost imaging, and isotope-resolved color neutron ghost imaging via prompt gamma-ray bucket detection.
