This method is based on photonuclear reactions. (gamma,n), (gamma,2n), (gamma,gamma') and (gamma,p)-type reactions have been observed. The samples were irradiated with bremsstrahlutig photons produced by a clinical electron linear accelerator (cLINAC) for up to about 85 min. The PAA results were compared with those obtained by X-ray fluorescence (XRF).enSoilPhoton Activation AnalysisHPGeClinacArticle1225762info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess2-s2.0-85009841591WOS:0003976990000092811002210.1016/j.apradiso.2017.01.011Q2Q3
