Abstract
Developing Nuclear Forensics Signatures
and National Nuclear Forensics Libraries
for the African Continent: A Case Review
for South Africa
Manny Mathuthu and
Ntokozo Khumalo
Nuclear terrorism has led to the development of National Nuclear Forensics Libraries (NNFL) from signatures by each Member State of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The objective of this Review is to highlight the need for Africa States especially South Africa to set-up their own Nuclear Forensic Laboratories that will apply available techniques to develop NNFL for their nuclear material. An overview of some applicable techniques is given as well as a few demonstrative results.
