Benefits of technology
[0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a detection system and method detects gamma and neutron radiation with more effective methods that effectively eliminate vibration issues, noise gathered by analog cabling, and shock factors, such as encountered in harsh operating environments. The gamma detectors provide high-resolution data from 1 kev to 3 Mev to enable spectral analysis. Furthermore, an embodiment of the present invention provides radiation detector support functions such as automated calibration, automated gain

Embodiment Construction
[0030] While the specification concludes with claims defining the features of the invention that are regarded as novel, it is believed that the invention will be better understood from a consideration of the following description in conjunction with the drawing figures, in which like reference numerals are carried forward. It is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, which can be embodied in various forms. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a basis for the claims and as a representative basis for teaching one of ordinary skill in the art to variously employ the present invention in virtually any appropriately detailed structure. Further, the terms and phrases used herein are not intended to be limiting; but rather, to provide an understandable description of the invention.
[0031] The terms “a” or “an”, as used herein, are defined as one, or more th...

Abstract
A radiation, explosives, and special materials, detection and identification system includes a housing supporting one or more gamma sensors and one or more solid-state neutron sensors proximate to container contents under examination. The system collects radiation data from the sensors and compares the collected data to one or more stored spectral images representing one or more isotopes to identify one or more isotopes present. The identified one or more isotopes present are corresponded to possible materials or goods that they represent. The possible materials or goods are compared with the manifest relating to the container to confirm the identity of materials or goods contained in the container or to detect and/or identify unauthorized materials or goods in the container. A battery powered sensor arrangement is also disclosed.
