Abstract

The present disclosure relates to detection systems and methods. One illustrative detection system may include a distributed radiation source having a plurality of radiation source focus points, which irradiate an object under detection, wherein the plurality of radiation source focus points are divided into a certain number of groups, and a primary collimator that limits rays of each of the radiation source focus points such that the rays emit into an XRD detection device. An XRD detection device may include a plurality of XRD detectors that are divided into the same number of groups as the radiation source focus points, wherein XRD detectors in a same group are arranged to be separated by XRD detectors in other groups, and rays of each of the radiation source focus points are received by XRD detectors having the same group number as the group number of the radiation source focus point.
