Abstract
A physical model describing in detail the process of fast neutron imaging in luminescent screens is presented. The detection quantum efficiency, luminosity and inherent spatial resolution of the screen were calculated using this model. Properties of transparent and disperse screens were compared. Two imaging systems were suggested to improve the detection efficiency and spatial resolution. A stack consisting of alternating neutron converters and image plates can help in obtaining both high spatial resolution and efficiency. A system containing a screen of special form and a diaphragm can be of use especially in the case of the fan beam.
