Abstract
SAFEGUARDS TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT TO PREVENT NUCLEAR MATERIAL ILLICIT TRAFFICKING. Nuclear material have been a material which have a strategic value. The presence of nuclear material at any nuclear facility have to be in secure and surveillance. If there are a changing in form or type of nuclear material, a changing in amount or weight and also its position have to be recorded. It has intended to prevent the possibility of the deviation in usage or in storage, and to prevent the possibility of nuclear material illicit trafficking. This paper describe the safeguards technology development aiming in the effort to prevent the possibility of nuclear material illicit trafficking. Technology development was focused on the improvement of existing nuclear material measurement techniques, detection methods and measurements of micro-particles, and the science of nuclear forensic implementation especially the determination of isotope age with concern to prevent nuclear material illicit trafficking. Measurement techniques and method improvement covered isotope correlation implementation to estimate the 242Pu, verification technique of 237Np, and detection method and micro-particles measurement.
Keywords : Safeguards technology, illicit trafficking, nuclear material.
