  • 1. Sandia National Labs., Albuquerque, NM (United States)

Description

Radiation transport methods applied to nuclear geophysics problems are reviewed. Application of both forward and perturbation techniques are considered. The recent advances in these methods and their implications for geophysical analysis are described. The basic formalisms in inverse transport methods are reviewed, and their potential applications to solve these problems are discussed. (author)
