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 results of calculations of radiation streaming through channels and gaps in the OTR reactor are presented. The discrete ordinates Sn method was used for two-dimensional analysis with the DOT3 code with 166/131 and 100/65 forward angle quadratures and the multigroup constant DLC-21 library. The analytical results are compared with previous data for the Fusion Experimental Reactor.
