METROLOGICAL ROLE OF REACTOR NEUTRON ACTIVATION ANALYSIS IN CONTEMPORARY INORGANIC TRACE ANALYSIS

摘要

In a series of three papers, the inherent characteristics of relative instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) as a primary ratio method of measurement, the unique functions of parametric INAA as an ideal back-up method of the relative INAA, and the valuable role of INAA in characterization of sampling behavior of individual elements in certified reference materials (CRMs) will be discussed.
