Osman, A.M. Monem, A.M.A. Faculty Applied Sciences Department Radiation, Radionuclides and Reactors Date 2008-04-01 Abstract The neutron back-scattering (NBS) technique is a well established method to find hydrogen in objects. It can be applied in land mine detection taking advantage of the fact that land mines are abundant in hydrogen. The NBS technique is suitable for land mine scanning e.g., seeking for land mines with a moving detector system, because of the high speed of operation. Scan speeds up to 800 mm/s are reported here depending on the intensity of the neutron source, the mine size and the depth at which the mine is buried Subject Explosives detectionland minesneutron detector To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:79f6acbf-446d-4962-ac67-05ff688f1b53 Publisher IEEE ISSN 0018-9499 Source IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 55 (2), 2008 Part of collection Institutional Repository Document type journal article Rights (c) 2008 IEEE Files PDF bom2008.pdf 647.74 KB Close viewer /islandora/object/uuid:79f6acbf-446d-4962-ac67-05ff688f1b53/datastream/OBJ/view
