60 YEARS OF IEA-R1: INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON UTILIZATION OF RESEARCH REACTORS
Resumen
Criminalistics can be defined as that profession and scientific discipline directed to
the recognition, identification , individualization, and evaluation of physical evidence
in laboratory or even in crime scene investigations with the objective to presentation
in court. For this purpose it uses the knowledge of many other areas, such as archeology,
human identification, sound comparison, etc. The nuclear area also presents
several challenges involving the response face to criminal activities. The International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has encouraged member states to create an adequate
structure for investigating criminal offenses related to nuclear security through a new
activity called Nuclear Forensic Science. In this work we propose the establishment
of a training course that encompasses the knowledge of nuclear and criminal science,
capable of training professionals for acting in the area of investigating illicit activities
related to nuclear safety.
