Solar container communication station electromagnetic detection time

How do shipping containers detect gamma & neutrons?

As part of current screening systems, shipping containers, offloaded from increasingly large cargo ships, are driven through radiation portal monitors comprising plastic scintillators for gamma detection and separate, typically 3 He-based, neutron detectors.

Can a microcontroller-based solar tracking system integrate a new adaptive solar position sensor?

Developed a microcontroller-based hybrid automatic solar tracking system that integrates a new adaptive solar position sensor (N. Mohammad and Karim, 2013). The system, combining both hardware and software components, was compared with other tracking systems and stationary modules to evaluate its performance.

Should shipping container screening systems be able to detect radionuclides?

To surpass the current capabilities, future generations of shipping container screening systems should be capable of rapid radionuclide identification, activity estimation and source localisation, without inhibiting container transportation.

What detection systems are used for shipping container screening?

Currently, the most common detection systems in use for shipping container screening are comprised of polyvinyl-toluene (PVT) scintillator panels in RPMs positioned around single traffic lanes.
