Automated Radioxenon Sampler-Analyzer
Automated Radioxenon Sampler-Analyzer or ARSA (shown here with its external panels) analyzes air samples for radioactive xenon, or radioxenon, that seep from underground nuclear explosions the most common testing method today but the most difficult to detect. ARSA has a detection sensitivity 10 to 100 times greater than other systems being used. It is the only completely automated radioactive xenon monitor.
