An equipment complex for instrumental elementary analysis

The competitiveness of elementary analysis on a research reactor depends, in many respects, on the provision of equipment which would permit the realization of the advantages of the analytical method. This paper describes the IR-8 reactor at the I.V. Kurchatov Institute of Atomic energy. In the design of the complex considerable attention was focused on automation and the radiation safety of the operations, which is of particular importance in the light of the large volumes of analysis
