Abstract

The invited paper given by J. SAUDINOS is an introduction to high energy proton radiography with examples of applications to human body and objects. Such technique permits to look through much thicker objects than it is possible with hard X-ray. In addition high energy proton penetration length is increasing versus the Z of the elements, at the contrary of the X-ray penetration length.
