Abstract:
The present invention is a device and method for the non-invasive detection of hazardous materials in an aquatic environment, wherein the device comprises a sealed housing, in which there is a fast neutron generator (101) surrounded by α particle detectors (106), and gamma quantum detector (111), wherein the fast neutron generator (101) emits neutrons in the direction of the tested object (107) through the neutron and/or gamma quanta guide (108), and the gamma quanta detector records gamma quanta emitted by the nuclei of the tested object (107) transmitted through neutron and/or gamma quanta guide (110).
