Résumé La mesure de traces d'éléments dans l'air ambiant a fait l'objet d'une attention accrue ces derniers mois, en raison d'un
intérêt grandissant pour les dangers en puissance pour la santé, qui résultent de l'exposition prolongée à certaines substances
toxiques. L'analyse par activation neutronique a été employée avec succès dans la recherche de traces d'éléments, et ce, pour
un grand nombre d'études de l'environnement; elle semble convenir de fa?on idéale pour la détermination non-destructive multi-élémentaire
de la composition de milieux de particules portées par l'air. Dans cet article, on rend compte des performances de l'analyse
instrumentale par activation neutronique comme on le montre dans le cas de 40 échantillons d'air filtrées provenant d'une
zone métropolitaine.

Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) was employed to determine concentrations of 19 elements (As, Ba, Br, Ce, Co,
Cr, Cs, Fe, K, La, Mn, Na, Nd, Rb, Sc, Sm, Th, Yb and Zn) in a large number (55) of tea samples (from market as well as virgin
tea leaves) from different locations in India (Assam, Darjeeling, Munnar and Kangra). The results obtained in the present
work are compared with those reported in literature. The concentration levels, their variations with collection locations
and the correlations among different elements in these samples are discussed. 相似文献

A large sample INAA (LS-INAA) was conducted based on available experimental conditions. Four different materials, e.g., a quartz-sand and three wastes from an incineration plant were analyzed on sample size of 1 kg. The neutron flux spatial distribution was determined by irradiation of flux monitors in the sample. The gamma-ray apparent counting efficiency was evaluated based on the effective-solid angle concept, using linear attenuation coefficients calculated from an iteration process. The k
0- and the modified monostandard methods were modified for the LS-INAA. To check the LS-INAA performance, a conventional small sample INAA was carried out for the quartz sand and a waste. All detected elements in the LS-INAA are presented and the discussion is conducted to explore the sources of errors in the LS-INAA. As a pilot experiment, the information from this work will be used in constructing irradiation and counting devices for the new FRM-II neutron source in Garching, Germany. 相似文献

The manganese content of some industrially important steel samples viz. IS-226, spring steel, galvanized iron, high tensile steel, and mild steel is determined by instrumental neutron-activation analysis using a252Cf neutron source. The analysis is performed by measuring the activity of56Mn after /n, / reaction on a 4 k multichannel analyzer coupled to a NaI/Tl/ detector at 847 keV, as well as on a single channel analyzer on integration mode coupled to a NaI/Tl/ detector. The results obtained by both procedures show reasonably good agreement with each other. 相似文献

We present and discuss a modification of instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) that is sensitive for nuclides that do not yield (suitable) activation products but have high cross sections for neutron absorption. Their presence in a sample may thwart INAA by neutron flux suppression inside the sample, but they remain undetected and thus unnoticed by the analyst. In particular, this refers to Li, B, Cd and Gd. The proposed method—instrumental neutron absorption activation analysis (INAAA)—takes advantage of the flux depression inside the sample caused by the neutron absorbers. It is made visible by addition of an activatable nuclide (indicator). The concentration of the neutron absorber (analyte) causes a decrease in activity of the indicator. The activity difference between a mixed sample (sample plus indicator) and the pure indicator carries the analytical information. The calibration curve hence follows a reciprocal exponential function. In a proof-of-principle experiment, the applicability for the quantification of boron was exemplified. In presence of only one neutron absorber (whose nature is known), INAAA can be applied easily for quantification of the analyte in powdered or liquid samples. Although INAAA is no trace sensitive method, it has the potential to increase the reliability of INAA analyses by fast and straightforward quality control (even in presence of two or more neutron absorbing nuclides). It is especially suited for research reactors that do not operate a prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) station. 相似文献

A comparative study is presented on neutron activation analysis of rock and soil samples using whole reactor neutron spectrum
and epithermal neutrons with both relative and monostandard procedures. The latter procedure used with epithermal neutron
activation analysis of soil samples necessitated the use of the “effective resonance integrals” which were determined experimentally.
The incorporation of the β factor, representing deviation of reactor epithermal neutron flux from 1/E law, is developed in
the present work. The main criteria for the choice of one or more of the procedures studied for a given purpose are also indicated.
Analysis of 15 trace elements, Ca and Fe in the standard Japanese granite JC-1 using monostandard epithermal neutron activation
gave results in good agreement with the average literature values.

The rotating rig at the Danish DR-3 reactor was used for irradiation of samples with masses from a hundred micrograms to several hundred grams. The pneumatic post for uranium delayed neutron counting was used for automatic sequential irradiation of samples subdivided into up to 24 aliquots, each with a volume of 7 cm3. The cumulative samples were measured in polyethylene irradiation containers in a specially designed radial holder. 相似文献

The use of thek 0-standardization method in instrumental neutron activation analysis gives good accuracy and precision. The analysis time can be reduced drastically by employing software for thek 0-standardization calculations. In this work samples were irradiated in a TRIGA reactor and the gamma spectrum was analysed by Sampo 90 and thek 0-standardization by the KAYZERO/SOLCOI code (DSM Research). The efficiency measurement and the peak to total ratio at the reference and other geometries were measured and tested for their accuracy by analysing some reference materials. Reference materials such as SRM 1572 (Citrus leaves), SRM 1573 (Tomato leaves), SRM 1575 (Pine needles), IAEA Soil-7 (Soil) and SRM 1646 (Estuarine sediment) were analysed for the major, minor and trace element contents. The results were in good agreement with the certified or literature values. The recently released IAEA 140 (Sea plant homogenates) was also analysed for 28 elements. 相似文献

Instrumental method for the determination of trace elements in water samples by neutron activation analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Thermal neutron activation analysis and a large-volume high-resolution Ge(Li) gammaray spectrometer, connected on-line to
a DEC PDP 8/L computer, have been used to measure the concentrations of Na, Sc, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Ag, Sb,
Cs, W and Hg in some Italian subsurface water samples. The instrumental method requires neither a chemical separation technique
nor a pre- or post-concentration of the trace elements to be detected. As a consequence, this method eliminates many inherent
errors associated with chemical determinations. The technique is sensitive, precise and particularly suitable for routine
analysis of many trace elements at both natural and pollution levels in water samples. The interferences due to fast neutron
(n, p) and (n, α) reactions are not appreciable, with the only exception of the54Fe(n, p)54Mn and58Ni(n, p)58Co reactions. Losses of volatile, elements, e. g. As, Br and Hg, during irradiation proved to be negligible. 相似文献

Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) for traces and major elements of several geological samples from “Zgounder”
region in Morocco was performed utilizing the k
0-standardization method. Sample irradiation has been done by the 250 kW Triga Mark II reactor at Jozef Stefan Institute in
Slovenia. Due to its accuracy, sensitivity and specificity, the k
0-standardization method is the most suitable method for non-destructive multielement analysis mainly for trace elements in
rocks. It requires an accurate knowledge of the parameters of the irradiation facilities and other instrumentation parameters.
It is an absolute standardization method, where the absolute nuclear data are replaced by a nuclear constant, the k
0-factor, determined experimentally with high accuracy. More than 40 elements were determined using about 30-second short and
about 7-hour long irradiations. Gamma-rays emitted from the irradiated samples have been determined by a high purity germanium
detector. Accuracy was assessed using the standard reference material AGV-1. This was less than 1% for major elements and
about 5% for traces.

Usually neutron activation analyses are performed in point-source geometry. However, specially designed irradiation positions
and carefully planned measuring conditions enabled the activation and analysis of samples with weights up to several tens
of kilograms. A dedicated character of irradiation and of measuring conditions was the main reason for a very limited application
of such activation analysis. The use of routine irradiation facilities and standard conditions for analytical gamma-spectrometric
measurements is described. Starting with samples of some hundred milligrams usually used in activation, through multi-gram
samples to several hundred gram samples, irradiation and measuring conditions were studied and tested for development of the
method. This work began in 1991 in Denmark, using the Danish DR-3 reactor. Since then different aspects of the method have
been investigated on 6 reactors; in Denmark on DR-3, in Austria on Triga-MkII (in Vienna), and Astra (in Seibersdorf), in
the German Federal Republic on FRG-1 in Geesthacht, in Norway on Jeep II (in Kjeller), and in Kazakhstan on VVR-K (in Alatau).
Altogether more than 1000 samples have been irradiated and measured. In total, the roughly 30 kg of irradiated materials included
almost 300 large samples of more than 30 gram weight. The following theoretical and practical aspects were investigated during
the work: theoretical problems concerning neutron self-absorption in common organic and inorganic materials, as well as gamma-attenuation
during the measurement. From a more practical point of view: health physics and radiation hazards during irradiation, measurement,
transportation and storage of samples with several hundred grams weight. Special requirements to irradiation containers were
formulated and various containers were tested. Main advantages and drawbacks of the method are discussed. 相似文献

Instrumental neutron activation analysis has been used to determine 15 trace elements in twelve blood serum samples taken from healthy students at Bilkent University in Ankara. The method allowed the determination of Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Se, Rb, Cs, Ce, Eu, Tb, Hf, Ta and Hg, which occur at the g.ml–1 to ng.ml–1 levels. There are no values reported for Tb, Hf, Ce, Eu and Ta before. The other results are compared with the values reported in the literature. Most are in the range of the reported values except for Fe, Zn, Se and Cs. 相似文献

A procedure has been developed for the detection of gunpowder residues deposited on the hand of a person firing a gun. The
method is based on neutron activation analysis of the antimony level on the surface of the hand. The surface materials are
removed by a film made by spraying a 4% solution of cellulose acetate in acetone, which sets to form a thin film that can
readily be stripped off. This technique was found to be preferable to the paraffin-lift technique which is in common use.
Following neutron activation of the film in a nuclear reactor, antimony is assayed by high-resolution Ge(Li) spectrometry
without prior chemical processing. The sensitivity of the method is about 5·10−9 g Sb, with a precision of about ±10% at a neutron flux of 5·1013 n·cm−2·sec−1. Analysis of twenty samples taken from the hands of persons who had fired a pistol gave Sb levels of 0.4±0.2 μg, compared
with 0.024±0.013 μg found on the hands of persons who had not fired a revolver. The possible extension of the present technique
to include the determination of additional elements is discussed.

An instrumental neutron activation analysis technique has been developed for the simultaneous determination of up to 30 elements
including major, minor and trace elements in Obsidian Rock (a proposed NBS-SRM-278). INAA method involves both short and long
irradiations followed by gamma-ray activity measurement with a Ge(Li) detector. The accuracy of the procedure has been checked
by analyzing IAEA Reference Materials. 相似文献
