Title: An Automatic Facility for Neutron Activation Analysis
Authors: MacDonald, Randy N.
Advisor: Kennett, T. J.
Department: None
Keywords: automatic, neutron, activation, facility, algorithm
Publication Date: Jun-1973
Abstract: <p> The development of a unified system for the automatic neutron activation analysis of large numbers of samples is described. The realization of the system entailed the automation of a gamma ray spectrometer system by means of a data and control link to a small computer (PDP-15) and the development of a reliable and fast data reduction algorithm suited to the small computer system. A detailed study of the algorithm and the errors associated with it has been included. </p>
