Abstract

It is well known that George Hevesy and Hilde Levi were the original discoverers of neutron activation analysis. However, there were many other researchers in Europe that firstly unknowingly and knowingly discovered the neutron, and others who experimented in neutron induced radioactivity. A historical timeline of the several parallel experiments in a very short period is given in this synopsis. It eventually was Hevesy and Hilde to first use the powerful technique of neutron activation analysis for analytical chemistry.
