Overall measurement uncertainty assessment of the k0-based neutron activation analysis

Author(s): Tinkara Bučar (Author), Borut Smodiš (Supervisor)

Year: 2008

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Neutron activation analysis (NAA) is an analytical method used for determination of the elemental mass fractions in different samples. It is based on the measurement of characteristic radiation, usually γ-rays, emitted from radionuclides formed through the process of neutron irradiation of the target element. The k0-NAA method is an NAA …
