Abstract
Quasi-monochromatic gamma rays produced through the laser-Compton scattering process (LCS-γays) are quite attractive tools in such various fields, as nuclear physics research, industry diagnostics and therapy in medicine. At AIST LCS-γrays of 1-40 MeV in energy can be obtained on a compact storage ring named TERAS. One major thrust of our researches is applying LCS-γrays to the non-destructive inspection of industrial products composed of high-density materials. Here we report our LCS-γray based computed tomography (CT) technology being developed for this purpose.
