What Does PINS Stand For?

PINS stands for Portable Isotopic Neutron Spectroscopy

PINS, or Portable Isotopic Neutron Spectroscopy, is a cutting-edge analytical technique utilized for the non-destructive identification and quantification of isotopes within a wide range of materials. This method employs neutron interactions to provide detailed insights into the elemental composition and isotopic ratios, making it particularly valuable in fields such as environmental monitoring, nuclear security, and material science. The portability of the PINS system enhances its versatility, allowing for on-site analysis in various settings while maintaining high accuracy and sensitivity.
