“…The beam is tagged by detecting the associated alpha particle produced in the reaction with a segmented α-particle detector (API technique) [2,3]. The position of the alpha particle defines the neutron emission angle (because alpha and neutron are emitted almost back-to-back).…”

“…The TNT target is surrounded either by a metallic or organic matrix that fill all the remaining cargo volume. The metallic matrix is composed of 0.2 cm thick iron boxes 66×60×50 cm 3 (66×60×35 cm 3 for the higher layer), filled with bundles of iron wire of density = 0.2 g/cm 3 ; the organic matrix consists of pannels made of dry (10% water) spruce wood with density = 0.5 g/cm 3 .…”

“…The project is aimed at developing a cargo inspection system to ascertain the presence or not of threat materials or smuggled goods without opening the cargo container. It is based on an innovative Tagged Neutron Inspection System (TNIS), which uses the Associated Particle Image (API) technique [1,2,3].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
