Abstract

Equations to calculate the second order reaction interferences in activation analysis have been derived. A simple approximation as well as the exact solution have been investigated. A new algorithm is proposed for fast and accurate calculations, without the need of a computer with high precision arithmetic. The method can be used for all higher order reaction chains.
