Diversion path analysis is the analysis
of all possible diversion paths or diversion strategies for nuclear
material at a facility. A diversion path analysis may be part of
the development of a model safeguards approach for a common
facility type, and may also be carried out for a specific facility.
The purpose of a diversion path analysis is to determine whether a
proposed set of safeguards measures would provide sufficient
detection capability with respect to a specific diversion path or
diversion strategy.
