  • 1. Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna (Russian Federation)

Description

The tagged neutron technique (TNT) is analyzed in terms of its application for detecting dangerous substances hidden in underwater objects. The use of the technique for solving these problems is justified theoretically. The main characteristics of a prototype detector aimed at detecting explosives in a water environment are determined.
