Abstract

Procedures for the determination of bromine by the reactions81Br(n, γ)82Br (T=35.4 h) and79Br(n, γ)80mBr (T=4.4 h). In the case of82Br a flat coaxial Ge(Li) crystal is used to measure the 619 keV photopeak. For80mBr a planar Ge(Li) detector is applied to measure the 39 keV γ-ray. The agreement between the data obtained with both techniques for some Standard Reference Materials is satisfactory.
