Description

Evaluations of electron accelerators of different types, having maximum energy of bremsstrahlung of up to 30 MeV, as neutron pulse sources, are given. It is shown that it is more advantageous to use tantalum, tungsten, uranium and lead as targets which permits to considerably increase photoneutron yield. It is also shown that electron accelerators may be successfully used to determine concentrations of many elements by the neutron activation method, analysis techniques possessing a high sensitivity
