Description

The EURITRACK portal makes use of the tagged neutron technique to inspect suspect regions of cargo containers identified in preliminary x-ray inspections. The portal has been in operation at the Rijeka seaport during the last three years. The performances of sub-systems, with particular interest on the sealed tube neutron generator, is presented.
