Most of the existing methods for detection of explosives require sampling and sample preparation, whereas in the search for explosives, it is not always possible to contact the explosive device (ED). In this connection, the methods for remote detection of explosives by detecting their particles present in various quantities near or on the surface of the explosive are of particular interest. The difficulty of detecting such substances lies in the fact that, in addition to full-scale samples, they may be in the package. In addition, it often becomes necessary to detect a trace amount of hazardous substances on packages and contact surfaces. The purpose of the article is to study the possibility of improving the accuracy of lidar measurements of the concentration of particles of explosives, taking into account the width of the laser emission line and the absorption width of the molecule under study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
