| Abstract: | A neutron induced prompt γ -ray spectrometry (NIPS) facility has been developed at the Nuclear Chemistry Research Division,
of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) with the aim of analyzing the major components of various elements in
aqueous samples. The facility is equipped with a 252Cf neutron source and a γ-γ coincidence setup with two n-type coaxial HPGe detectors based on NIM spectrometric modules in
association with data acquisition and spectral analysis systems. The development of the system, its set-up and the calibration
of detection efficiency up to 8 MeV using a set of radionuclides and the (n,γ) reactions of chlorine are described in the
paper.
