Collimator
12474279 · 2025-11-18 · ·

A compact and small size multichannel collimator for neutrons with energies up to 50 keV is provided. The collimator has a multichannel structure composed of collimating channels (in air, vacuum or in the non-interacting atmosphere of Helium-4) alternating with full channels made with absorbent materials for slow neutrons. The geometry of the individual collimating and absorbing channels can be arbitrary. The geometry with channels of square section, such as to create a perfect checkerboard, is preferred from the point of view of ease of construction.

GENERATION OF FUSED ENVIRONMENTAL AND COMPOSITIONAL INFORMATION
20260044645 · 2026-02-12 ·

A compositional visualization system comprises a sensor to collect contextual information, a particle generator to generate a first stream of one or more types of particles, and a detector to receive a second stream of one or more detectable products. The second stream is generated by interaction of the first stream with the environment. The system further comprises computer-executable instructions to cause the system to transform the received second stream into compositional data, and merge the compositional data with the contextual information to generate a merged digital representation. The merged digital representation can be displayed at one or more devices and can also be used directly to drive autonomous robotic systems.
