Feasibility study of compact Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis using a linac, a fusion-based neutron generator, and an isotopic source
Various nuclear security applications such as fuel enrichment analysis and warhead verification seek to identify nuclear materials in a black box target. Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) is a spectroscopic technique which uses resonant neutron absorption to identify isotopic compositio...
