In the last decade, new developments in mobile radiation detection systems brought new improvements and challenges in the detection, quantification, localization and identification of radioactive sources or the mapping of a contaminated areas. For this analysis four scenario types will be considered. Small platforms such as unmanned vehicles, in particular unmanned aerial vehicles, requires higher efficient and energy resolution detectors together with other features such as: compactness, reliability, low-cost, low power consumption and less expensive devices. This seminar will be presented by PhD student Major Luís Marques (CIDIUM/AFA), under the supervision of researchers dr. Alberto Vale (IPFN/IST) and dr. Pedro Vaz (C2TN/IST).
The European Conference on Plasma Diagnostics is a biennial event which aims at bringing together physicists or other scientists working on diagnostics for magnetic confinement fusion, beam plasmas and inertial fusion, low-temperature and industrial plasmas, and basic and astrophysical plasmas.
The third edition of the Conference will take place in Lisbon, Portugal starting from 6th and finishing on 10th of May 2019.
