  • Abstract
    The neutron scatter camera was originally developed for a range of SNM detection applications. We are now exploring the feasibility of applications in treaty verification and warhead monitoring using experimentation, maximum likelihood estimation method(MLEM), detector optimization, and MCNP-PoliMi simulations.
