The sensitivity studies of a landmine explosive detection system based on neutron backscattering using Monte Carlo simulation

This paper carries out a Monte Carlo simulation of a landmine detection system, using the MCNP5 code, for the detection of concealed explosives such as trinitrotoluene and cyclonite. In portable field detectors, the signal strength of backscattered neutrons and gamma rays from thermal neutr...
