Since the signing of Comprehensive Nuclear test-ban Treaty CTBT in 1996 and the establishment of IMS International Monitoring Systems for the verification of nuclear explosions significant improvements has been achieved in monitoring systems. . The improvements in seismic detection systems and the technology has substantially surpassed the development and the sophistication of infrasound...
The Great Lakes region is hit by geological hazards that disrupt sustainable development in the region. Most of the cities in the region are located in the East African Rift. This is the case of some cities in which the vulnerability is on a high level. CTBTO has installed two seismographic stations in Kenya and one in Uganda. The ongoing maintenance of these stations by CTBTO has provided a...
As a result of nuclear weapon testing,certain markers appear,and that allows to identify a nuclear explosion.Modern technologies and methods allow hiding radioactive isotopes after an explosion or camouflage seismic signals,but the means and methods of masking antineutrinos do not exist.Antineutrino is a particle that is the only true real-time nuclear signature from a nuclear explosion that...
Radioactive xenon isotopes are signatures of clandestine underground nuclear tests. Their low concentrations remote from the event require collection and separation from large quantities of air using porous carbon sorbents. Unfortunately, due to their short half-lives, large dilution factors, and the long times required to remotely acquire samples, information concerning the time, location,...
