Usefulness of prompt gamma-ray analysis with guided neutron beams compared to NAA

  • 1. Japan Atomic Energy Research Inst., Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

A neutron-induced prompt γ-ray analysis (PGA) has become widely utilized due to the improved analytical sensitivities and detection limits especially by using low energy guided neutron beams. Current studies on the low energy neutron guided beam PGA are reviewed. Historical backgrounds, current analysis systems, advantages when compared with conventional NAA, standardization for elemental determination and analytical applications in JAERI of the guided beam PGA are described.
