  • Abstract
    The Zr–Au set for monitoring the thermal and epithermal neutron fluence rate and the epithermal spectrum parameter α is not always practicable for routine application of INAA in well-thermalized facilities. An alternative set consisting of Cr, Au and Mo provides values for the thermal neutron fluence rate, f and α that are not significantly different from those found via the Zr–Au method and the Cd-covered Zr-method. The IRMM standard SMELS-II was analyzed using the (Au–Cr–Mo) monitor and a good agreement was obtained.
