Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis

Abstract

A PGAA instrument consists of a source of neutrons, a collimating beam tube to shape and direct a beam of neutrons onto a sample, a shutter to turn the beam on and off, a target assembly to position the sample reproducibly in the neutron beam, a gamma-ray detector, a beam stop to absorb the neutrons that are not absorbed by the sample, and shielding to protect the detector and personnel from neutron and gamma radiation. Each of these components will be considered in turn.
