Abstract

Prospects of the application of computers for the selection of optimum methods and for data-processing in activation analysis are discussed. Programs have been developed to select the irradiation source and the type of recording apparatus and to optimize time conditions. Various methods for handling gamma-radiation spectra are discussed. Complex utilization of the programs allows in many cases the elimination of the necessity of developing individual procedures, and the determination of the optimum method for a given element and given analysis parameter.
