A frescoes inspection device based on Compton backscattered X-rays
Abstract
An instrument for detecting and monitoring potential frescos detachments has been developed. It is based on Compton backscattered photons and is made of an X-ray tube, a detector system and a translation system. The device has been employed on standard samples with different and known detachments in order to achieve the optimum set-up. The results of the optimization process are presented.
