Abstract

Photoactivation of 13 elements was studied using 5.000 Ci and 30.000 Ci sources. Reported data from the study are presented in tables including experimental conditions, observed activity, sensitivity achieved, gamma energies and half-life observed, and reaction cross-sections. Comparisons are made between this research and earlier reports.
