Abstract

An assembly for scanning a core or rock sample is disclosed. The assembly includes a first high energy photon emitter that is configured to emit a first beam of photons at a first location on the core or rock sample and a first detector that is configured to receive photons excited by the first high energy photon emitter from the first location on the core or rock sample along a first detection axis. A first collimator surrounds the first detection axis. The first collimator is removably coupled to the assembly.
