Stand-off Detection of Suicide Bombers and Mobile Subjects

  • Proceedings of these workshops are the only possibility to gain up to date information about the detection of explosives under conditions of terrorist actions
  • No normal literature available about this special item
  • Activities in this area by Russian researchers will be of special interest
  • The proceedings of such workshops are a very suitable vehicle for international scientific cooperation in this applied R and D field
  • A good complement to the other ARW prodeedings dealing with detection of explosives

Part of the book series: Nato Security through Science Series B: (NASTB)

About this book

These proceedings contain the presentations of a NATO-Russian - vanced Research Workshop (ARW) held at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology (ICT) near Karlsruhe, Germany, attended also by most of the members of the “Explosive Detection Working Group” (EDWG) of the “Advisory Panel on Security-Related Civil Science and Technology”. The ARW, approved by the NATO Science Committee, is the ?fth NATO- Workshop during the last 3 years dealing with the detection of explosives in connection with counter-terrorism. The special goal of this workshop was the exchange of knowledge and experiences in the special ?eld of “Stand-Off Detection” and to ?x the “State of the Art” in this ?eld of research. At the end of the workshop proposals of Research & Development were presented (but not included in the proceedings), which were eva- ated by the present members of the EDWG during the following day of the workshop. One of the ?rst measures to counter the threat will be to stop the transport of illicit materials, that means in our case to detect explosive charges before they are initiated by terrorists.
