R. Zeisler et al., HIGH COUNT RATE GAMMA-SPECTROMETRY - A SUMMARY OF RECENT EXPERIMENTS IN HIGH-ACCURACY NAA APPLICATIONS, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 179(1), 1994, pp. 61-66
A source of error in the gamma-spectrometric registration of the analy
tical signal in neutron activation analysis is its dependency on the o
verall count Fate. Losses in the accuracy of quantitation occur due to
hardware and software. This paper presents examples for solutions to
these problems and demonstrates that accurate NAA can be accomplished
under high-rate counting conditions with commercially available techno
logy.
