Abstract
The spectrometry of promptly emitted; rays after thermal neutron capture is used for a complete, nondestructive, isotopic material analysis del eloped at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), This method is indepen dent of the sample dimensions and its state of aggregation, Furthermore all isotopes are detected by multichannel analysis, simultaneously. Isotopic m ass differences have been determined up to now with a relative uncertainty of 3 x 10(-10) [1].
