The use of explosives in terror attacks, including improvised ones, presents an ongoing threat which requires the development of techniques for detecting a larger variety of explosives, faster detection, and with lower rates of false alarms. Counterterrorist Detection Techniques of Explosives, second editioncovers the most successful techniques for explosives detection at present. This completely revised volume describes the most updated research findings, which will be used in the next generation of explosives detection technologies. New editors Drs. Avi Cagan and Jimmie Oxley have assembled in one volume a series of detection technologies of explosives, written by a group of scientists who are experts in each of these technologies. The book helps researchers to compare the advantages and disadvantages of all available methods in detecting explosives and, in effect, allow them to choose the correct instrumental screening technology according to the nature of the sample. Covers bulk/remote trace/contact or contact-less detectionDescribes techniques applicable to indoor (public transportation, human, and freight) and outdoor (vehicle) detectionReviews both current techniques and those in advanced stages of developmentProvides detailed descriptions of every technique, including its principles of operation, as well as its applications in the detection of explosives | Counterterrorist Detection Techniques Of Explosives by Avi Kagan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
