Abstract |
The SECURE 1000 system was evaluated as a contraband detector. The evaluation was similar to developmental testing and was not an operational evaluation. The test was composed of a safety evaluation, and three target material tests: (1) explosives, (2) illegal chemical substances, and (3) weapons and special nuclear materials (SNM) container. Written records were made of all tests. The conduct of the tests were recorded on video tape and x-ray images were recorded on computer discs. The safety evaluation demonstrated that the dose from SECURE 1000 is 2 (plus minus) 1 microrem. Results from the other tests indicate that the SECURE 1000 does have applicability to contraband detection, i.e. detection of explosives, weapons, SNM containers, and illegal chemicals. |
