About this file

This document is a presolicitation for the THOR program. The Department of Homeland Security's Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office seeks to identify, explore, and demonstrate new technologies within the chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear domains that will prevent, protect against, respond to, and mitigate threats. Specifically, the office prioritizes over-the-horizon innovations, near-term solutions to operational challenges, and new applications of technologies to address emerging threats. The attached presolicitation and related documents provide full details on the program's objectives and planned research areas.

Criteria Matrix for

Thallium Bromide Human Portable Radiation Detection Systems Objective Resolution (THOR)

Date: February 12, 2021

600-THOR-129150-v1.0

For Public Release

The following table indicates the changes made to the document.

Version Modified By Section Updates V1.00 Initial Release

Table of Changes

Purpose and Scope The purpose of the Criteria Traceability Matrix (CTM) is to document the criteria developed for the THOR Program. The intent is to capture criteria, not requirements, for the assessment of the Technology Readiness level (TRL) of detector modules using Thallium Bromide (TlBr) as the detection material that has the potential to meet future Radio Isotope Identification Device (RIID) procurement requirements. While the criteria are not intended for an acquisition of RIIDs some are intended to inform vendors of likely requirements for a next generation RIID procurement.

The THOR Program is not an acquisition program, it is Phase III and IV of a Research and Development (R&D) effort to increase the TRL for Thallium Bromide (TIBr) as a detection material. TIBr is currently assessed at a TRL of 4. The THOR Program’s approach is to integrate the detector material technology already developed during Phases I and II into a prototype form factor suitable for testing. The device(s) will then transition to commercialization once a TRL of 7 is achieved.

THOR established a Criteria Working Group (CWG) composed of requirements, research, development, acquisition, and test and evaluation personnel from the DHS CWMD office and representatives from Customs and Border Protection’s Laboratory and Scientific Services Division, see Table 1 below. The objective of the CWG was to identify potential criteria and develop evaluation criteria that ensure: TRL 7 is achieved; critical ANSI and DHS specifications are incorporated; the impact of criteria on prototype production is assessed; and industry recommendations are incorporated. The CWG developed the criteria using Basic Handheld (BHH), Advanced Handheld (AHH), and Secure the Cities (STC) requirements as a foundation for use in THOR testing. These criteria are denoted as “Prototype” in the CTM.

The CWG considered what requirements may be feasible beyond the prototype, as in a production version RIID. These criteria are identified as “Deployment”, and are intended to be an indication to vendors of potential requirements for the next generation RIID procurement. They are not inclusive of all requirements for the next generation RIID, but those the CWG determined could affect and/or inform design decisions of the prototypes (i.e., the neutron requirements are included in the CTM to remind developers that in addition to the gamma CDM there are these major components that must also fit within the overall size, weight, and power design constraints).

CR-01 Gamma Detection Device, during scanning operations, shall alarm/provide an indication when the radiation field changes from ambient background to that with a non-background source of radiation present.

See Notes

Probability of detection (PD) ≥80% at a relative speed of 0.3 meters/second and distance of closest approach of 0.61 meters of 0.66 µR/hr of Co-57 and separately 7.53 µR/hr of Ba-133.

Probability of detection (PD) ≥80% at a relative speed of 0.61 meters/second and distance of closest approach of 1.22 meters of 0.66 µR/hr of Co-57 and separately

7.53 µR/hr of Ba-133.

Derived from BHH The alarm signal threshold settings must be the same as those used for the false alarm tests, and device orientation must be as used in standard operations (in hand for scanning). For testing, the exposure rate to be detected will be scaled as the square root of the ratio of the current test site background exposure rate to the background exposure rate on which the requirement was based (7.5 uR/hr). The background may vary between 0.34 µR/hr to 25 µR/hr. After establishing the target exposure rate based on test site background, the required distance and speed remain as listed in the threshold and objective. If a source is used that requires a different distance than that specified in the requirement to obtain the target exposure rate at the distance of closest approach, then speed must also be modified scaled based on the ratio of the distance of closest approach for test to the distance of closest approach specified in the requirement.

MTBF is defined for a particular interval, as the total operating time (time that the system is operating or capable of operating) of the population of devices divided by the total number of failures (requiring corrective maintenance actions).

Deployment

CR-62 Shelf Life Device shall be fully functional upon startup after long periods of storage under standard conditions.

>12 months of storage time. >18 months of storage time.

CONOPS based on user experience

Standard conditions are:

Ambient temperature 18°C to 25°C Relative humidity (RH) ≤75% Atmospheric pressure 70–103.3 kPa (525–775 mmHg at 0 °C)

During long periods of storage that the device will not require routine operational checks.
