Abstract:
Techniques, systems and apparatus are described for operating a multimode passive detection system (MMPDS). A multimode passive detection system includes charged particle tracking detectors to measure cosmic ray-based charged particle trajectories in a volume of interest. The multimode passive detection system includes fission product detectors to detect cosmic ray-based charged particle induced fission in a fissile material present in the volume of interest.
