Device for remote viewing of objects in ionizing radiation fields

A device for remote viewing of objects in ionizing radiation fields, comprising:

• a fibre-optics channel intended for transmission of the image of an object under observation beyond a biological shield against ionizing radiation;
• an entrance lens of said fibre-optics channel;
• a fibre bundle of said fibre-optics channel, one end whereof is placed in the immediate vicinity of said entrance lens, while the other end is beyond said biological shield against ionizing radiation;
• fibres of said fibre bundle;
• a source of heat in said fibre-optics channel, intended to maintain at least only said fibre bundle at a temperature ensuring thermostabilization of its light conducting properties in the presence of the ionizing radiation;
• a component of the composition of the material of said fibre bundle, which is a chemical compound of elements ensuring transformation of the energy of absorbed or scattered neutrons to thermal energy;
• said component serving as said heat source.
