Calculation of Optimal Geometrical Magnification and Spatial Resolution of Betatron Tomograph

Abstract

One of the perspective directions of development of non-destructive testing is the method of computed tomography. Computed tomography really enhances the ability of X-ray inspection, from thin and simple to thick and complex parts. There are many factors that influence the performance of computed tomography, the main parameters for computed tomography scanners and also scanner based on betatron, are geometric magnification and spatial resolution. Calculations of these parameters for the betatron tomograph are shown in this paper.
