Neutron Tomography of Spent Fuel Casks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Signal Processing Systems, 2021
Dry casks for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) ensure the safe storage of SNF and provide radiation shielding. However, the presence of the thick casks encompassing several layers of steel and concrete makes inspection of the SNF a challenging task. Fast neutron interrogation is a viable method for the nondestructive assay of dry storage casks.
