Times Cited Count:24 Percentile:81.47(Chemistry, Analytical)It is well known that most radioactive nuclides emit coincident multiple -rays. The multiple -ray detection method takes advantage of this feature and the -rays are detected in coincidence with a -ray detector array. From the correlated data we can create a - two-dimensional matrix or -- three-dimensional cube. On this matrix or cube an energy resolution much better than the ordinary one-dimensional spectrum can be achieved. Furthermore signal-to-noise ratio is considerably improved. Hence this method can be applied widely to radioactive nuclide analysis. In the talk I will present its typical application to the analysis of nuclear waste, neutron activation analysis (NAAMG), and prompt -ray analysis (MPGA).

A new trace element analysis method is proposed on the basis of multiple -ray detection, which is two or higher fold -ray coincidence method. We apply this method for prompt -ray activation analysis (PGAA) and instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). The advantage of the methods consists of high energy resolution and high sensitivity. The principle of the multiple -ray detection method and actual applications to cosmological chemistry, earth chemistry, environmental chemistry, etc, will be presented.
