Detection Technologies
Abstract
The Detection Technologies project continues research formerly conducted under project RF. This project develops, integrates, and transitions advanced concepts, technologies, and subsystems enabling enhanced nuclear and radiological location, identification, and tracking capabilities. Leveraging gains made in applied research efforts, this project produces advancements in range, process time, sensitivity, and accuracy. In addition, this project continues the development of novel concepts and technologies enabling the identification and exploitation of non-radiation based signatures associated with nuclear threats (e.g., transportation of nuclear materials, patterns of activity, or unique materials). The decrease from FY 2016 to FY 2017 is due to decreased investment in radiation detection and nuclear threat detection intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance technologies.
