Monte Carlo simulations as a feasibility tool for non-metallic land-mine detection by thermal-neutron backscattering

The use of Monte Carlo simulations is presented for modelling a simplified land-mine detector system with thermal neutron backscattering (TNB) analysis based on a 252Cf-neutron source. Different aspects and a variety of external conditions, related to localisation and identification of a buried obje...
