Abstract :
Summary form only given. A hybrid coded imaging and detection system developed at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) was used for active interrogation measurements with pulsed bremsstrahlung at the Hermes-III facility at Sandia National Laboratories. This work follows previous experiments performed in 2011 and explores different targets and system conditions to the previous work. Unique detection and imaging of fissionable compared to nonfissionable material will be discussed.
