Abstract
After installation and calibration of k(0)-assisted NAA in three Central Eu ropean research institutes (AEKI-Budapest, NPI-Rez. and IJS, Ljubljana), it s validation was established via the analysis of three BCR certified refere nce materials. The matrices of choice were: CRM 277 estuarine sediment, CRM 038 coal fly ash from pulverized coal, and CRM 101 spruce needles. For som e elements, e.g. Zn, Cd, and Hg, the analyses were not only performed instr umentally (INAA), but also in the radiochemical mode (RNAA). The work was p erformed in the framework of a European Copernicus Project.
