Multi-parameter optimization of a (3He-252Cf-3He) neutron backscattering sensor for landmine detection
Experimental measurements were carried out to optimize the performance of a (3He-252Cf-3He) assembly for plastic anti-personnel landmine detection in dry soils. This is done by employing a 252Cf source producing 0.7 × 104 n.s−1 and a pair of two identical 3He detectors. The Signal-to-background rati...
