CNT Rad/Nuc Passive Defense

Abstract

Advanced Development of Joint Radiological and Nuclear passive defense systems (i.e. Radiological Detection System and the Joint Personal Dosimeter). The Radiological Detection System will provide a ruggedized Radiation Detection, Indication, and Computation for real time gamma radiation monitoring and low energy x-ray, beta, alpha, and neutron detection. The Joint Personal Dosimeter will provide a joint solution to increase capability and reduce life-cycle costs. Both systems will address Operation TOMODACHI (response to Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant incident) lessons learned for common, interoperable equipment with adequate sensitivity and common units of measure.
