Prompt gamma activation analysis is a non-destructive nuclear analytical method with multi-element capabilities. It is most effective if intense neutron beams (especially cold beams) of nuclear reactors are used to induce the prompt gamma radiation. Based largely on the author’s research in cold neutron PGAA, the handbook describes the methodology in self-contained manner and reviews applications. The library of prompt gamma ray data and spectra for all natural elements, also provided on a CD-ROM supplement, is a unique aid to the practitioner. The level should be understandable by a broad audience, which facilitates teaching and training.
