The neutron imaging studies of the metal archaeological objects from the Eleke Sazy complex

Abstract

The internal structural features of large metal objects found in the cultural and memorial complex of Eleke Sazy in the Republic of Kazakhstan were studied using neutron radiography and tomography. Bronze plate, arrowhead, and fragment of metal bit were studied. The 3D models of the studied objects were reconstructed, the spatial distribution of metals and corrosion products were obtained, and soldering restoration joints were identified.
