  • Abstract
    The scientific and methodical aspects of system design for radiation monitoring of nuclear weapons for treaty verification and for customs monitoring to prevent contraband of the fissile materials are considered in this paper. The γ-ray spectroscopic systems for remote detection of nuclear weapons and for the monitoring of the number of warheads within a missile nose cone are considered, and the results of experimental test and computer simulations of this system are given
