Na. Shubina et Gm. Kolesov, MATRIX EFFECTS IN THE INSTRUMENTAL NEUTRON-ACTIVATION ANALYSIS OF NATURALLY-OCCURRING SAMPLES, Journal of analytical chemistry, 52(10), 1997, pp. 953-965
Matrix effects in the instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA)
of naturally occurring samples were studied with the use of thermal an
d resonance reactor neutrons. The advantages and limitations of INAA w
ere assessed by experimental data on the gamma spectra of radionuclide
s of individual elements and the numerical models of gamma spectra for
samples of a given composition.
