Results from field tests of the one-dimensional Time-Encoded Imaging System

Marleau, Peter M.; Brennan, James S.; Brubaker, Erik B.

A series of field experiments were undertaken to evaluate the performance of the one dimensional time encoded imaging system. The significant detection of a Cf252 fission radiation source was demonstrated at a stand-off of 100 meters. Extrapolations to different quantities of plutonium equivalent at different distances are made. Hardware modifications to the system for follow on work are suggested.
