Facility optimization to improve activation rate distributions during IVNAA
Currently, determination of body composition is the most useful method for distinguishing between certain diseases. The prompt-gamma in vivo neutron activation analysis (IVNAA) facility for non-destructive elemental analysis of the human body is the gold standard method for this type of analysis. In order to obtain accurate measurements using the IVNAA system, the activation probability in the ...
متن کاملTime lag between prompt optical emission and γ - rays in GRBs ( Research Note )
Aims. The prompt optical emission contemporaneous with the γ-rays from γ-ray bursts (GRBs) carries important information on the central engine and explosion mechanism. We study the time lag between prompt optical emission and γ-rays in GRB 990123 and GRB 041219a, which are the only two GRBs had been detected at optical wavelengths during the ascending burst phase. Methods. Assuming profiles of ...
متن کاملShielding studies on a total-body neutron activation facility
Background: Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) is known as a non-invasive technique capable of measuring elemental concentration in voluminous samples in a short period of time. Also it is a valuable diagnostic tool for total body elemental measurements. 252Cf and 241Am-Be sources which are usually used in this method, generate not only neutrons, but also emit high-energy and unwa...

Feasibility of the Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis Facility at Triga Ipr-r1 Reactor in Brazil
This work presents the preliminary design of a PGNAA (Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis) facility at the TRIGA IPR-R1 research reactor of the CDTN. The results of experimental and calculated neutron flux in a vertical tube are presented and discussed. The results confirm the technical feasibility of the installation of PGNAA at the TRIGA reactor and the possibility of enhancing the appli...
