Active interrogation is necessary to detect highly enriched uranium in large cargo containers and trucks. To achieve sufficient penetration, most nuclear techniques first interrogate an object with high-energy photons or neutrons, to produce fission

We present the design of the gamma-ray and neutron spectrometer (GR/NS) for Dawn, which is a NASA Discovery-class mission to explore two of the largest main-belt asteroids, 1 Ceres and 4 Vesta, whose accretion is believed to have been interrupted by

[1] New models have been computed for the Lunar Prospector (LP) thermal and epithermal neutron counting rates using the particle transport code MCNPX. This work improves upon previous studies by using one code to model the neutron production, transpo

[1] Neutron spectroscopy data acquired by Mars Odyssey are analyzed to determine the abundance and depth of near-surface water ice as a function of latitude in the southern hemisphere as well as the inventory of CO2 in the south polar residual cap. T

Global distributions of thermal, epithermal, and fast neutron fluxes have been mapped during late southern summer/northern winter using the Mars Odyssey Neutron Spectrometer. These fluxes are selectively sensitive to the vertical and lateral spatial
