Abstract

The activation yield curves have been presented for a number of photonuclear reactions in the energy range from 30 to 68 MeV, in order to evaluate quantitatively the interferences due to competing reactions in multielement photon activation analysis. The general features of the yields as functions of both target mass number and excitation energy were elucidated from the data obtained, discussion being given on the results in terms of the reaction mechanism. Simultaneous neutron activation due to appreciable neutron production from the converter and surrounding materials has also been studied, and, finally, the magnitudes of interferences in real multielement analysis were given in the form of their energy dependences.
