Abstract
Fast neutron activation analysis technique was applied for the determination of Si, Al, Ti, Fe and Zr in glass sand rock samples. The samples and standards were irradiated with a mono-energetic neutron flux of 108n · cm− · s−1. Pneumatic facility was used. The gamma activities from samples and standards were counted using a 30 cm3 Ge(Li) detector, with FWHM of 2.9 keV at 1.332 MeV, coupled to an on-line computer facility.
