"Nuclear Science for Homeland Security"

Dr. Alexei Klimenko
Passport Systems, Inc.



Passport Systems Inc. have recently completed construction of the Proof-of-Concept Scanner that utilizes Nuclear Resonance Fluorescence
(NRF) and EZ-3D technologies and was designed as a prototype of a high-throughput system to screen the flow of cargo entering the US.
The fusion of NRF and EZ-3D technologies achieves low levels of false alarms at high probability of detection. EZ-3D creates a 3D map
of the effective Z distribution within inspected cargo and identifies anomalous regions that consequently are interrogated automatically
using NRF signatures.

 In this presentation, an overview of technologies will be given and associated algorithms and hardware developed and
 integrated by Passport Systems Inc. will be presented.





Presentation: Physical Sciences Building II 1100 @ 3:00 pm
Refreshments: 1st Floor Atrium @ 2:30 pm
