Abstract

Earlier studies in forensic neutron activation analysis are being extended in this Laboratory. Three of these new studies are reported here: (1) a study of 0.22-caliber rimfire cartridge primers, (2) a large-scale study of shotgun pellets, and (3) a new 5-element procedure for the analysis of bullet-lead and shotgun-pellet samples.
