NuSec Technical Workshop 2026

The NuSec Technical Workshop 2026 takes place at National Physical Laboratory on Wednesday 11 February 2026.  This one day in-person meeting is aimed at all researchers working on detection science for nuclear security applications. 

The technical scope of the workshop will cover all detection science topics relevant to NTRnet, with a particular focus on the following areas:

• new detectors for nuclear security applications, including perovskites, new scintillators, and neutron detectors.
• detection systems, instrumentation, and field trials relevant to nuclear security.
• 'Big data' networks and AI/machine learning algorithms, with updates from the recent SIGMA data challenge.

The program will include a mixture of invited talks from senior researchers, and presentations from PhD students and early career researchers. 

 

 

To register your attendance at the NuSec workshop please submit your registration details using the Workshop Registration page. There is no charge to register for the NuSec workshop. We regret that we are not able to offer online attendance for this workshop.
