DTRA’s advancements in nuclear and radiological detection
A new, more complex nuclear age has begun. Echoing the tensions of the Cold War amid rapidly evolving nuclear and radiological threats, preparedness in the modern age is a contest of scientific innovation. The Research and Development Directorate (RD) at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is charged with winning this contest.

The present article is devoted to investigation of cryogenic pumping assembly developed at Russian Federal Nuclear Center (VNIIEF). The main scheme of facility is given, where KH-50M pump is a principle unit. The research concerns the pumping speed for the cryopanel cooled to ∼5K, dependent on gas load. The coolant consumption for the selected model of pump is determined.
