The three-dimensional (3D) spatial analysis of radioxenon isotopic activity ratios can be used to determine the source type of a nuclear event without any knowledge of the time of its generation. This method requires at least a triple detection from the same sample among the four CTBT-relevant radioxenon isotopes, which are 131mXe, 133mXe, 133Xe, and 135Xe. The 3D space of three different...
The full moment tensor solution (MTS) allows characterisation of the source mechanism by resolving the six independent components of the source moment tensor. Determining the proportion of isotropic and deviatoric moment released by a source is essential to distinguish between explosion and earthquake sources. However, complications occur because explosions can produce deviatoric deformation...
The data fusion automatic pipeline at the CTBTO aims to provide the most complete summary of signals observed by the International Monitoring System (IMS) by linking event information formed from seismic, hydroacoustic and infrasound (SHI) detections with radionuclide detections. The sensitivity of an IMS station sampling period to a possible release location is estimated using backward...
Research on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) has advanced rapidly, with recent architectures successfully applied to seismological tasks such as earthquake source characterization and event association. Inspired by advancements in traffic forecasting and temporal knowledge graph completion, we propose dynamic GNNs that integrate graph convolutional layers and autoencoders to capture...
