Inhaltsangabe

Funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, this report was written to assist the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in its efforts to develop more effective, flexible explosive and bomb detection systems. The study describes the characteristics of explosives, bombs, and their components that are or might be used to provide a signature for exploitation in detection technology; considers scientific techniques for exploiting these characteristics to detect explosives and explosive devices, discusses the potential for integrating such techniques into detection systems, allowing sufficient sensitivity without an unacceptable false-positive rate; and proposes additional research in practical explosives and bomb technology in the near, mid, and long term.
