项目摘要
Border security is a high priority. The detection of contraband, narcotics, firearms etc. requires improved technical solutions to improve the identification of these materials at entry points and elsewhere. In this proposal we will investigate the use of backscattered x-rays to produce a three dimensional image of the materials inside cargo that is being carried in vehicles or containers. Using a pulsed x-ray source the time of flight of the backscattered x-rays will be measured with an array of scintillation detectors in order to obtain data that can be used to create a three dimensional image. Preliminary experiments at the VELA facility at Daresbury using a single detector have shown a relationship between the time of flight and the position and composition of an object. As the time of flight is a few nanoseconds it is necessary to develop a fast digital data acquisition system for the detector array. This data acquisition development and the use of the system in two sets of experiments are the focus of this proposal. The array of up to eight scintillation detectors and the data acquisition system will be used at the VELA facility at Daresbury to collect data that will be later analysed to show its potential for producing three dimensional images. The system will then be used a Rapiscan's facility at Stoke where the pulsed x-ray beam is more like those that could be widely deployed. These experiments will investigate improving the response of the system and the algorithms developed in the first part of the work.
边境安全是一个高度优先事项。违禁品、麻醉品、火器等的侦查需要改进技术解决办法,以改进在入境点和其他地方对这些材料的识别。在本提案中,我们将研究使用后向散射X射线来产生车辆或集装箱内货物内材料的三维图像。使用脉冲X射线源,将用闪烁检测器阵列测量反向散射X射线的飞行时间,以便获得可用于创建三维图像的数据。在达雷斯伯里的VELA设施使用单一探测器进行的初步实验表明了飞行时间与物体的位置和组成之间的关系。由于飞行时间是几纳秒,因此有必要为探测器阵列开发一个快速的数字数据采集系统。本文的数据采集系统的开发和使用两组实验是本文的重点。多达8个闪烁探测器的阵列和数据采集系统将在达雷斯伯里的VELA设施中使用,以收集数据,这些数据将在以后进行分析,以显示其产生三维图像的潜力。然后,该系统将用于斯托克的Rapiscan设施,那里的脉冲X射线束更像是可以广泛部署的。这些实验将研究如何提高系统的响应和在第一部分工作中开发的算法。
