Description

Boron is an element that can be effectively determined using the Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) method. we applied the PGNAA method to quantify 10B in automobile glass through the reaction 10B(n,αγ)7Li. Measurements were conducted using an HPGe-BGO Compton suppression spectrometer system at the Dalat Nuclear Reactor. The construction of a linear calibration function for concentration calculations and the peak fitting technique to analyze the 478 keV peak, which overlaps with neighboring peaks and Doppler broadening effects were conducted.
KEYWORDS : Boron, PGNAA, Dalat Nuclear Reactor.
