Proton Gamma Activation Analysis

The most utilized methods include X-ray fluorescence (XRF), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), activation analysis (AA), optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP), mass spectroscopy (MS). Less frequently used techniques include ion-selective electrode (ISE), proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE), and ion chromatography (IC). In different laboratories each of these methods may be practiced by using one of several optional approaches or techniques. For instance, activation analysis may involve conventional thermal neutron activation analyses, fast neutron activation analysis, photon activation analysis, prompt gamma activation analysis, or activation analysis with radio chemical separations. X-ray fluorescence options include both wave-length and/or energy dispersive techniques. Atomic absorption spectroscopy options include both conventional flame and flameless graphite tube techniques. [Pg.21]

Other frequently used methods for determining fluoride include ion and gas chromatography [150,204,205] and aluminium monofluoride (AIF) molecular absorption spectrometry [206,207]. Less frequently employed methods include enzymatic [208], catalytic [209], polarographic [210] and voltammetric methods [211], helium microwave-induced [212] or inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry [213], electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry [214], inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry [215], radioactivation [216], proton-induced gamma emission [217], near-infrared spectroscopy [218] and neutron activation analysis [219]. [Pg.534]

The fundamental principle behind analysis by activation analysis is activation or excitation of an atomic nucleus by exposure to radiation such as neutrons, protons or high-energy photons with subsequent measurement of emitted sub-atomic particles or radiation. The most common aspect of the technique involves activation with neutrons in a nuclear reactor and measurement of delayed emitted gamma rays, denoted neutron activation analysis, either instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) or neutron activation followed by radiochemical separation (RNAA) in which the element of interest is chemically separated from the matrix after irradiation to provide for better, unimpeded counting. [Pg.1577]
