The boron-coated straw (BCS) neutron detection technology has been proposed as an attractive 3He replacement solution in a series of applications in homeland security, neutron science, and safeguards. In order to improve the neutron detection efficiency of the BCS, while maintaining manufacturability, Proportional Technologies, Inc. is introducing a modified BCS with significant performance benefits...
Deuterium-Tritium (D-T) neutron generators have seen increasing use as high energy neutron sources tor active, nondestructive assay in arms control, treaty verification, and nuclear and homeland security applications. The D-T reaction produces a 3.5 MeV alpha and a 14.1 MeV neutron that travel in opposite directions, which facilitates transmission and stimulated fission tomography to reconstruct images...
D-T neutron generators have been used as an active interrogation source for associated particle imaging techniques. The D-T reaction yields a 14-MeV neutron and an alpha particle. The kinetics of the reaction allow the directionality and timing of the neutron to be determined utilizing position sensitive detectors for both the alpha and neutron. This information may be used for imaging applications...
