title: Detection of anti-personnel landmines by neutron scattering and attenuation.
abstract: Four methods for employing neutrons to detect abandoned small anti-personnel landmines are presented and discussed. The techniques used are based on measurements of effects due to the scattering of neutrons on the hydrogen content of the landmine.
