title: Use of neutron-energy moderation for resolving interferences in fast-neutron activation analysis.
abstract: Four elements, vanadium, chromium, manganese and iron, have been determined in nickel-base samples after measurement of the intensity of two gamma-lines; the 0.85-MeV gamma-ray emitted by (56)Mn (produced from both Mn and Fe), and the 1.44-MeV gamma-ray from (52)V (arising from V and Cr). The two elements contributing to each gamma-peak were assayed separately from data obtained by irradiating each sample twice with neutrons of different energy distributions.
