TOPIC: NT-19-FOR-01 ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES FOR POST-DETONATION TECHNICAL NUCLEAR FORENSICS

DTRA seeks innovative research and development on technical nuclear forensics technologies, techniques and protocols. Technical nuclear forensic is the collection and exploitation of post-detonation materials, effects, and outputs that allow experts to assess weapon outputs and characterize its design. Solutions may include, but are not limited to: the capability to conduct prompt diagnostic analysis of an event (within 24-48 hours) that provides key information on weapon’s design and origin; enhanced capabilities to perform in-field analysis of gas and material samples; and improvement in lowering uncertainty of field measurements.

General areas of major improvement may include, but are not limited to traditional collection and analysis of gas, particulate, geophysical signals (seismic, acoustic, and overpressure), and speed of light signals (optical, radio-frequency, and gamma)). DTRA expects selected project(s) to be at TRL 5-6 by the end of the project.


TOPIC: NT-19-FOR-02 ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES FOR MONITORING AND VERIFICATION OF NUCLEAR DETONATION EVENTS

DTRA seeks solutions for the detection, location, and characterization of a nuclear explosive event. Such approaches are expected to detect and identify the local aspects effecting output of the detonation, and the source of detonation as well as discriminate between nuclear and non-nuclear events. Specifically, proposals should focus on emerging, enabling technologies that have demonstrated advanced capabilities, but not yet integrated into higher TRL detection systems. Proposals must demonstrate that the new capability could be integrated into a system that would provide value to the DTRA mission during the performance of the effort.

General areas of major improvement may include, but are not limited to: Seismic (local, regional, and teleseismic), Infrasound (local, regional, and telesonic), and hydro acoustic modeling, detection and characterization; and radionuclide modeling, detection, collection, and analysis. DTRA expects selected project(s) to be at TRL 5-6 by the end of the project.
