A. Seppala et al., ABSOLUTE THICK-TARGET GAMMA-RAY YIELDS FOR THE LIGHT-ELEMENTS INDUCEDBY C-12, N-14 AND O-16 IONS, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 143(3), 1998, pp. 233-243
Thick-target gamma-ray yields for elements with Z = 3-30 (excluding el
ements Z = 10, 18, 21) at C-12 ion energies of 22 and 28 MeV, for elem
ents with Z = 3-9 at N-14 ion energy of 28 MeV and at O-16 ion energie
s of 28 and 33 MeV have been determined. Tables of the most suitable g
amma-ray lines for elemental analysis are given. The general applicabi
lity of C-12, N-14 and O-16 ions for prompt gamma-ray spectrometry sim
ultaneously with backscattering analyses is discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevi
