The detection and characterization of highly enriched uranium (HEU) presents a large challenge in the non-proliferation field. HEU has a low neutron emission rate and most gamma rays are low energy and easily shielded. To address this challenge, an i

A dual-particle imaging (DPI) system, capable of simultaneously imaging fast neutrons and gamma rays, has been operated in the presence of mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel to assess the system׳s angular resolution and material-characterization capabilities. T

The stochastic origin ensembles (SOE) method has been implemented for the reconstruction of neutron and gamma-ray images from a dual-particle imager (DPI). SOE image reconstruction is an iterative stochastic process that creates images using Markov-c
