Surface Coatings as Xenon Diffusion Barriers for Improved Detection of Clandestine Nuclear Explosions
This thesis investigates surface coatings as xenon diffusion barriers on plastic scintillators. The motivation for the work is improved radioxenon detection systems, used within the verification regime of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). One type of radioxenon detection systems used...
