NE 532 - Detection, Localization, and Nondestructive Assay of Nuclear and Radiological Materials

3 Credit Hours
Introduces nuclear material and nondestructive assay of nuclear material. Students learn about radiation background, its variance, and methods for detection of radiological and nuclear threats in the presence of background. Localization and imaging of nuclear and radiological materials are discussed. Methods for detailed characterization of nuclear materials are explored. Students complete simulation-based assignments to demonstrate their understanding of how nuclear materials may be detected in the presence of radiation background, and they write a journal quality review paper that is relevant to the subject of the course.
