Nuclear security

We explore innovative methods to detect radiological and nuclear materials for nuclear security and environmental protection.

Our research interests

Our interests include:

Utilising music compact discs to detect radon
Underground animal burrow radiation measurements for environmental monitoring and treaty verification
Optimised sensor placement for radiological search
Quantum dot enhanced detection technology.

If you would like further information about our research then please contact Dr Caroline Shenton-Taylor.

We don’t currently have any upcoming events. Check back soon for further announcements.

We work across three other research areas here in the Radiation and Medical Physics Group.
