Vehicle and container control for the presence of a dirty bomb
SPIE Proceedings, 2006The possibility of the detection of > presence inside sea containers has been evaluated. The method proposed for detection of simultaneous presence of explosive and radioactive material inside the vehicle or container makes use of two active sensors (x-ray and neutron sensor) and one passive (neutron and gamma ray sensor).
