We report a powerful method for capturing the time-resolved concentration profiles, liquid swelling and surface phenomena during the absorption of methane (CH(4)) in still liquid ethanol (C(2)D(6)O) and n-decane (n-C(10)D(22)) and at high spatial resolution (pixel size 21.07 μm) using neutron imagin...
