Webinar on IAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 2-G: Implementing Guide on Nuclear Forensics in Support of Investigations (Arabic)
Description
Nuclear forensics involves a comprehensive plan undertaken by States to determine the origin and history of nuclear and other radioactive material in support of law enforcement or nuclear security investigations. The IAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 2-G (Rev. 1): Implementing Guide on Nuclear Forensics in Support of Investigations, published in 2015, presents guidance on the role of nuclear forensics in the context of investigating a spectrum of possible nuclear security events involving nuclear and other radioactive material out of regulatory control. It is designed to provide descriptions of nuclear forensic examinations; the role of nuclear forensics in a national nuclear security infrastructure, including investigation of a nuclear security event; and mechanisms for international cooperation and assistance in nuclear forensics.
