Abstract:The Nuclear Materials Identification System (NMIS), developed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Oak , has been successfully used at Y-12 for nuclear material control and accountability (NMC&A). It is particularly useful in the high gammaray background of storage arrays and for shielded HEU. With three systems in use at Y-12, NMIS has enhanced the NMC&A capability for verification and for confirmation of materials in storage and for HEU receipts by providing capability not available or practical by other… Show more
