After the outbreak of the wars in Ukraine and Palestine, CBRNe threats are sadly back in the news. This book, based on the first-hand experience of the author, a researcher in the field, reports on recent advances in selected topics and describes current scientific case studies, focusing on the role of actors in the response to CBRNe incidents, the reaction to severe events in major cities, with special reference to immediate investigation and effective communication, and modern laser spectroscopy systems that, using quantum technology and artificial intelligence, enable the rapid and non-contact detection, identification and monitoring of chemical warfare agents and explosive precursors, even at great distances.

Luca Fiorani has a PhD in Laser Sensing, MAS in CBRNe (with honours), Economics & Policy (with honours), CAS in Laser Safety, MSc in Physics (with honours) – and is a senior researcher at ENEA (Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development) and a policy officer at the European Commission. He worked within Research and Development at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, California, USA; CERN, Geneva, Switzerland; University of Naples, Italy; and CNR. Adjunct professor at Lumsa and Sophia Universities, Italy. He was the Italian representative on the Protection of the Arctic Marine Environment Working Group of the Arctic Council (2012-23), Chair of the Coastal Zone Special Interest Group of the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories (2021-2023), member of: the Global Council of LSM (2018-22), the Independent Scientific Evaluation Group of NATO's Science for Peace and Security, Scientific Committee of New Humanity, International Committee of EcoOne (Chair 2008-21), Working Group 5 "Safety, Security, Space & Defence" and 6 "Agriculture & Food" of Photonics21, WG 3 "Novel Mathematical Algorithms and Methods for Processing Non-destructive Spectroscopic Sensors in Real Time" of SensorFINT and Agrifood Committee of Italian Society for Non Destructive Testing Monitoring Diagnostics. He is also author of 103 peer-reviewed publications.
