Popis: This paper describes recent fast-neutron imaging measurements of the fieldable nuclear materials identification system (FNMIS) under development by Oak Ridge National Laboratory with National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA-NA-22) support for possible future use in arms control and nonproliferation applications. This paper presents initial imaging measurements performed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory with a Thermo Fisher API 120 DT generator and the fast-neutron imaging module of the FNMIS.1This manuscript has been authored by Oak Ridge National Laboratory, managed by UT-Battelle LLC under contract no.
