摘要

Neutron activation analysis (NAA) has been applied to the determination of several trace elements in rocks and in marine sediments. Epithermal neutron activation analysis (ENAA) has been shown to be useful in the analysis of rocks, because some strong activities limiting the instrumental determination of many elements are reduced. Some USGS geological reference materials have been activated by both thermal and epithermal neutrons, evaluating the experimental advantage factors of ENAA and comparing the obtained concentrations and the detection limits for both methods. ENAA is particularly useful to determine several elements, among which some of the rare earth elements (REE), whose importance in petrogenetic studies is well known. In the case of marine sediments, the REE are considered particularly important for simulating the chemical behaviour of the actinides in the environment. For this purpose, REE have been determined after a group separation from the matrix, in order reduce the complexity of the activation gamma-ray spectra. This separation step improves detection limits for all REE, allowing the determination of some of them not easily detected without a separation, like Nd, Gd, Tb and Tm. (ERA citation 11:048058)
