Nuclear forensic science -- when nuclear scientists and law enforcement meet — •Maria Wallenius — European Commission Joint Research Centre Directorate G - Nuclear Safety and Security Nuclear Safeguards and Forensics

Nuclear forensics is a discipline in which JRC Karlsruhe has a pioneering role: JRC was the first institution, which started to perform nuclear forensic analysis "in a routine manner" for seized nuclear materials 30 years ago. Starting as an ad-hoc analysis to respond safeguards and law enforcement authorities - questions on seized nuclear materials - what it is and where it comes from - nuclear forensics has now developed to a grown-up specialty.

Whereas nuclear forensics relies mostly on techniques used commonly in others fields, such as in nuclear safeguards, materials science or geochemistry, it has refined many of the methods and developed characteristic parameters (so-called nuclear forensic signatures) to response to the specifics required due to the criminal investigation.

This presentation will highlight some of the used methods, show newest developments and demonstrate their application by case studies.
