The QST and the JAEA are proposing an ERL (energy recovery linac) -based Compton source to produce high flux photons (1013 ph/s) in MeV region with energy tenability for non-destructive assay (NDA) of all nuclides (including nuclear materials (NM)) utilizing nuclear resonant fluorescence (NRF). We can apply the proposed NDA system to nuclear security and nuclear safeguards for analyzing NM in severe conditions such as under very high radiation background or in deep inside material. For these applications we have studied NDA of isotopes in transmission geometry for measurement of NM inside a thick wall canister and in scattering geometry for measurement of NMs of spent fuel in water or detection of NM in a heavy shield. We present our efforts on these.
