The nuclear analytical instruments at MLZ are based on the radiative neutron capture, i.e. they are activation analytical methods. Prompt gamma activation analysis and in-beam neutron activation analysis, installed at a high-flux cold neutron beam, have successfully been used for about ten years for the investigation of a large variety of samples. The same beam accommodates neutron depth profiling mainly serves lithium-ion battery studies. Neutron activation analysis uses the well-thermalized high-flux irradiation channels and it is major field of application is trace-element analyses, complementing the bulk analysis with PGAA.
