NEUP CINR-24-31664: Non-Destructive Plutonium Assay in Pyroprocessing Bulk Materials with a 3D Boron-Coated-Straw Detector Array

The objective of the proposed project is to develop and demonstrate a 3D boron-coated-straw detector array (3D-BCSDA) with high efficiency and spatial resolution. This detection system will be specifically designed to accurately assess the fissile mass in bulk nuclear material during pyroprocessing operations, thereby improving the precision and reliability of accountability measurements during separation.
