Abstract:

A new NQR(Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance)-based method for explosive detection is introduced. The underlying principles and the conditions for explosive detection are analyzed. A test system for explosive detection based on NQR was developed, which was shown to be able to detect NQR signals from RDX, TNT, HMX, PETN, and TETRYL explosive samples at room temperature. These results demonstrated that it is feasible to use the method for explosive detection.

Key words: nuclear quadrupole resonance, explosive, explosive detection, landmine detection
