Abstract

Et dataprogram, en database og en fremgangsmåte til detektering av spaltbart eller radioaktivt materiale i en beholder (9) arbeider med detekteringsanordninger (24, 25) som er brakt i nærheten av beholder (9), slik at nærværet av spaltbart eller radioaktivt materiale, eller avskjermingsmaterialer for skjuling av nærværet av slike spaltbare eller radioaktive materialer, kan detekteres. En sammenlikning kan deretter utføres av utgangssignalene fra detektoren med en terskel for å bestemme etterfølgende handling vedrørende beholderen (9). Terskelen kan være basert på utgangssignalet fra kjente, farlige, radioaktive materialer, kjente, lovlige innhold eller tomme beholdere.
