Abstract
Method and apparatus for evaluating an earth formation using a pulsed neutron source comprising of dual beams of oppositely directed hydrogen isotopic ions with timing and focal characteristics of each beam set to accomplish a beam-to-beam focusing interaction to a selected position that extends axially along a sealed tube. This makes it possible to generate pulsed neutrons from a plurality of positions.
