Abstract
The software ASPRO-NUC is based on new improved algorithms suggested a nd tested in the laboratory and intended for routine analysis. The pac kage consists of the program ASPRO for gamma-ray spectra processing (p eak search, multiplets deconvolution by means of method of moments, co mputation of correction coefficient for geometry and material of radio active source), a program for isotope identification and a program for NAA by means of relative standardization. All output information is l oaded into a data base (Paradox v.3.5 format) for supporting of querie s, creation of reports, planning of routine analysis, estimation of ex penses, supporting of network of analytical survey, etc. The ASPRO-NUC package also includes a vast nuclear data base containing evaluated d ecay and activation data (reactor, generator of fast neutrons, Cf-252 source). The data base environment allows for easy integration of a ga mma spectrometer into a flexible information shell and the creation of a logical system for information management.
