Passive detection of radionuclides from weak and poorly resolved gamma-ray energy spectra

Large passive detectors used in screening for special nuclear materials at ports of entry are characterized by poor spectral resolution, making identification of radionuclides a difficult task. Most identification routines, which fit empirical shapes and use derivatives, are impractical in these sit...
