Abstract  

An advanced neutron activation technique has been developed for the accurate analysis of elemental and isotopic fissile material required in nuclear safeguards, nuclear material standardization and other applications. It is based on reactor neutron flux spectrum differentiation by cadmium screening and multistandard calibration, including the solution of a second order equation system or of computerized calibration curve fitting, taking into account the thermal neutron flux depression. Some discrepancies at high enrichments have still to be eliminated in order to achieve the required measurement accuracy.
