Project 1:
Simulating Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) sensors to optimise sensor design and signal analysis enabling reduced data acquisition times.
Approach:
Monte Carlo simulation of PGNAA sensor for varying detector setups and ore types. Analysis of the detector response and sampling to aid sensor data analysis and optimisation of sensor design. Evaluation of the potential use of data from other sensors such as X-Ray Transmission (XRT) and hyperspectral imaging to aid analysis of PGNAA data.
