Modern technologies for detection and identification of explosive agents and devices

Аннотация

The physical principles and most effective modern technologies for detecting and identifying explosive agents and devices and the analytical potential of these technologies were considered to solve the problems of antiterrorist security and countermeasures against terrorist attacks using explosive devices based on explosive agents. Particular attention was paid to the possibility of detecting explosive agents and devices, in particular, during automated control at the entrance to airports, railway stations, and various institutions and organizations and security check of suspicious persons, luggage inspection, etc. An analysis of the possibilities for identifying explosive agents and devices can evidently create conditions for expanding the existing technologies or combining them with new technologies for detecting not only various types of explosives, but also narcotic drugs, firearms, cold weapons, radioactive substances, poisonous substances, highly toxic substances, biological agents, etc.
