Activation analysis with fast neutrons using a cyclotron

Journal Article · · J. Radioanal. Chem., v. 15, no. 2, pp. 575-583
OSTI ID:4339177
A systematic study of activation analysis with cyclotron-produced neutrons for (n, 2n), (n, p), and (n, alpha ) reactions is presented. The limits of detection for elements of atomic number from 6 to 80 are given. The possibilities of optimization of irradiation conditions by the choice of the most suitable neutron spectrum are discussed. The potential of this fast neutron activation analysis method is compared with that of 14-MeV neutron activation analysis. (auth)
