Nonproliferation
Unique challenge: interdisciplinary science of detection methods, reactor physics, fuel cycle and policy.
Non-proliferation and nuclear defense in the post-Cold War era were presented with new problems
- Terrorist groups and sub-national actors are seeking nuclear materials and weapons instead of national weaponization
- Building nuclear weapons is no longer a daunting problem because of widespread of nuclear technologies and expertise
Advanced Detectors
Unique challenge: traditional detectors do not always work for nonproliferation and safety applications, including rough terrains, high temperatures and very high radiation fluxes.
Advanced and nontraditional detectors include these based on Cherenkov, fast neutron gas counters and robust systems.
