FOREWORD
Neutron activation analysis (NAA) is the most common technique practised in research reactors. According to the IAEA’s Research Reactor Database, NAA is practised in 50 countries, in approximately half of all operating research reactors. The IAEA has a long history of supporting NAA groups in its Member States. By sustaining and expanding the utility of research reactors, benefits to society can be maximized.
In the past decade, the IAEA has coordinated research on the analysis of large intact samples, an area that significantly expands the scope of application of NAA. It has also coordinated the development of an integrated approach to routine automation of NAA, leading to measurable gains in the capacity of laboratories.
For many years, the IAEA has supported the enhancement of the quality of NAA analytical services by providing training in quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC). This has included developing and delivering reference materials and organizing and facilitating participation in interlaboratory comparisons. Since 2010, the IAEA has organized feedback workshops following interlaboratory comparisons, during which participants analyse and identify sources of error, both technical and managerial, and present methodologies for their elimination through improved QA/QC approaches.
