Abstract: A low cost neutron capture prompt gamma activation analysis facility has been constructed at The University of Michigan's Pheonix Memorial Laboratory. Although the neutron beam used has a fairly large epithermal component (Cd ratio 7.1), background levels are low enough to result in satisfactory measurement of over 16 different elements. For the elements of greatest sensitivity (samarium, boron, gadolinium, and cadmium) minimum detectable levels of 3.6·10−5 to 1.4·10−5 gram for a one hour measurement are possible. The fast neutrons incident to the detector were found to be minimal. Estimates of up to 3 years of continuous operation before measurable damage is expected. |
