Abstract
A radiation source position detection system is provided, wherein three radiation detectors are arranged at different positions. Based on radiations incident to each of the radiation detectors, curved surfaces where a radiation source exists are calculated. By solving equations of each of the curved surfaces simultaneously, the position of the radiation source is detected.
