The NORMA station is one of the complementary parts of the NIPS-NORMA facility. The neutrons are guided from the cold neutron source of the Budapest Research Reactor to the experimental positions in the Cold Neutron Guide Hall by a neutron guide. It has been designed for neutron radiography (NR) and tomography (NT), and as position feedback for imaging-driven Prompt Gamma Activation Imaging (PGAI). The beam’s size can continuously be adjusted up to its maximum of 40×40 mm2. The image detection of the NORMA station relies on digital imaging equipment being able to carry out 2D and 3D imaging using suitable scintillation screens. Objects are positioned in a sample chamber, where they can be loaded manually from the top or placed onto an XYZω motorized sample stage.
