Artigo IPEN-doc 25771 Evaluation of the uncertainty associated with sample holders in NAA measurements in LAN/IPEN2019 - ZAHN, G.S.; TICIANELLI, R.B.; SAIKI, M.; GENEZINI, F.A.In IPEN’s Neutron Activation Laboratory (LAN/IPEN), thin stainless steel sample holders are used for gamma spec-trometry in NAA measurements. This material is very practical, but its chemical composition may be troublesome, as it presents large amounts of elements with intermediate atomic number, with attenuation factors for low-energy gamma-rays that must not be neglected. In this study, count rates obtained using different sample holders were compared. To accomplish that, an Am-241 source, with 59-keV gamma emission, was used so that low-energy gamma attenuation differences can be determined. Moreover, in order to study the energy dependence of these differences, a Ho-166m source was also used. From these results, it was possible to analyze the experimental error associated to the variations between sample holders, with the aim of introducing an addictive term to the uncertainty analysis of comparative Neu-tron Activation Analysis results.Artigo IPEN-doc 24074 Evaluation of the uncertainty associated with sample holders in NAA measurements in LAN/IPEN2017 - ZAHN, GUILHERME S.; TICIANELLI, REGINA B.; SAIKI, MITIKO; GENEZINI, FREDERICO A.In IPEN’s Neutron Activation Laboratory (LAN/IPEN), thin stainless steel sample holders are used for gamma spectrometry in NAA measurements.
