“…Among these, the Elpasolite scintillators, such as: CLYC (Cs 2 LiYCl 6 :Ce), CLLC (Cs 2 LiLaCl 6 :Ce), CLLB (Cs 2 LiLaBr 6 :Ce), CLLBC (Cs 2 LiLaBr 6 x Cl x :Ce), CNYC (Cs 2 NaYCl 6 ), etc., are some of the most interesting materials. Most of them exhibit excellent performances in terms of energy resolution (< 5 % at E = 662 keV, good for identification of gamma emitters), due to their high light output (> 20000 photons/MeV) and linearity, and thermal neutron detection capability (Smith et al, 2013;Liang and Smith, 2020;Pérez-Loureiro et al, 2021;Hawrami et al, 2016).…”

“…The development of a new generation of fast inorganic scintillators with moderate energy resolution for gamma rays, sensitivity to both thermal and fast neutrons, and PSD capabilities to discriminate between the two types of radiation is also promising for future developments. Examples are CLLBC [33] and CLYC [34,35]. Although these and similar inorganic scintillators have reduced cross sections for fast neutrons compared with organic scintillators, the energy transfer mechanism (primarily due to 35 Cl(n, p) and 35 Cl(n, α) reactions) also enables neutron spectroscopic measurements [36].…”

A novel technique for non-destructive assay (NDA) of radioactive waste called ARCTERIX (Advanced Radwaste Characterisation based on Tomographically Enhanced Radiation Imaging without X-rays) is presented. The concept is based on a 3D-tomographic imaging technique for special nuclear materials – neutron-gamma emission tomography (NGET). ARCTERIX takes the NGET principle from its original application area of nuclear security systems into the realm of radioactive waste assay with its special characteristics and challenges. By adding localisation and imaging of SNM inside shielded waste containers to the array of existing techniques used for radioactive waste characterisation, ARCTERIX complements the state of the art in passive and active NDA interrogation methods. It is aimed primarily at the class of mixed, long-lived radioactive waste that is commonly called “legacy” or “historic” waste which has special safety, security and safeguards concerns due to its mixed composition, commonly poor documentation, and the frequent presence of SNM. The ARCTERIX concept provides rapid imaging and characterisation of nuclear materials in radioactive waste with a high degree of automation and high throughput capabilities, making it possible to quickly scan large radioactive waste inventories for the presence of special nuclear materials with minimal manual intervention. The first ARCTERIX prototype system has demonstrated a high technological readiness for the implementation of the technique in a commercial stand-alone system for rapid assessment of radioactive waste drums or in a system operating in conjunction with established techniques.
