Abstract
The k o -method has been developed for 10 MW Pakistan Research Reactor (PARR-1). It involved the full energy peak efficiency calibration of HPGe detector for different counting geometries and characterization of neutron flux at three irradiation channels. Neutron flux was characterized for thermal to epithermal flux ratio, epithermal flux shape factor, modified spectral index, Westcott's g-factor and fast flux. The method was validated by analyzing IAEA-SL1 (lake sediment) and NIST-SRM-1572 (citrus leaves). All calculations were performed in Excel. The results revealed most of the elements with good accuracy.
