Recent technological breakthroughs, notably in the field of near infrared (NIR), mid infrared (MIR), Terahertz (THz) and Gigahertz (GHz) sources and detectors, have led to rugged commercial devices, capable of standoff sensing a range of these dangerous substances. However, at the same time criminal and terrorist organizations have also benefited from the availability of technologies to increase the threat they pose to the security of citizens and a concerted effort is needed to improve early detection measures to identify activities, such as the production of homemade explosives or CBRN that can be potentially dangerous to society. The key global technological bottleneck to be overcome is the current lack of integration and networking of mature detection technology into early warning systems for critical infrastructures. Thus, this book brings together complementary information connecting the research of leading teams working on critical Infrastructure protection with academic developers and industrial producers of state of the art sensors. 001436306 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 10, 2021). 001436306 650_0 $$aTerahertz technology$$vCongresses. 001436306 650_0 $$aInfrared technology$$vCongresses. 001436306 650_0 $$aExplosives$$xDetection$$vCongresses. 001436306 650_0 $$aPublic works$$xProtection$$vCongresses. 001436306 650_0 $$aInfrastructure (Economics)$$xProtection$$vCongresses. 001436306 650_6 $$aTechnologie térahertz$$vCongrès. 001436306 650_6 $$aRayonnement infrarouge$$xTechnique$$vCongrès. 001436306 650_6 $$aExplosifs$$xDétection$$vCongrès. 001436306 650_6 $$aTravaux publics$$xProtection$$vCongrès. 001436306 655_7 $$aConference papers and proceedings.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423772 001436306 655_7 $$aConference papers and proceedings.$$2lcgft 001436306 655_7 $$aActes de congrès.$$2rvmgf 001436306 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001436306 7001_ $$aPereira, Mauro F.,$$eeditor. 001436306 7001_ $$aApostolakis, Apostolos,$$eeditor. 001436306 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9789402420814$$w(OCoLC)1227086192 001436306 830_0 $$aNATO Science for Peace and Security series.$$nB,$$pPhysics and biophysics,$$x1874-6500 001436306 852__ $$bebk 001436306 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-024-2082-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001436306 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1436306$$pGLOBAL_SET 001436306 980__ $$aBIB 001436306 980__ $$aEBOOK 001436306 982__ $$aEbook 001436306 983__ $$aOnline 001436306 994__ $$a92$$bISE
