  1. Neutron Activation AnalysisSummer School PracticeJoint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna Prepared by: Mohapi Thebe(UWC & Necsa-SA) Supervisor:Prof. M. V. Frontasyeva(JINR-RU)

  2. Layout • Definition: NAA • Methodology and some practical work • Introduction to NAA lab at FLNP • Discuss-Analytical Investigations At IBR-2M Reactor

  3. Introduction • Neutron Activation Analysis • Analytical technique for qualitative and quantitative • determination of elements • Based upon the conversion of stable nuclei into radioactive • nuclei by radiation with neutrons • Several types of radiation are emitted but γ-radiation offers • the best characteristics for selective and simultaneous • determination of elements. • Types of NAA : ENAA,INAA • CNAA • PNAA &DNAA

  4. Introduction(Con’t) • Fast or fission neutrons (E~100 keV-25 MeV) • Epithermal neutrons (E~0.5 eV-100keV) • Thermal neutrons (E~0.025 eV)

  5. Procedure in NAA Gamma Spectra from a Sample of Pottery Irradiated for 24 Hours, Decayed for 9 Days, and Counted for 30 Minutes on a HPGe Detector
