Neutron activation analysis can distinguish between quarries lying in the same formation, because the trace elements form different patterns even in quarries lying quite close together.

Maria is a multifunctional research tool, with a notable application in production of radioisotopes, research with utilization of neutron beams, neutron therapy, and neutron activation analysis.
23.
The deceased were accompanied by 27 ceramic vessels; fragments of five were submitted for neutron activation analysis, which revealed a mix of local and imported pottery.
24.
Though neutron activation analysis was used to detect trace levels of arsenic in the mid 20th century, it has since fallen out of use in modern forensics.
25.
It is used for scientific purposes, such as neutron activation analysis, neutron physics experiments, calibration of nuclear measurement devices and the production of neutron transmutation doped silicon.
26.
Cf-252 is, however, in smaller quantities a very useful neutron source for starting nuclear reactors, scanning nuclear reactor fuel rods, and neutron activation analysis in the field .)
27.
The reactor is used for a variety of purposes : undergraduate education involves NAA ( Neutron Activation Analysis ), reactor physics experiments and radioisotopes for tracers and counting experiments.
28.
Working with faculty from the entomology department, neutron activation analysis has been underway on a number of samples from an ant colony to ascertain the behavior of sharing food.
29.
Since the matrix effect can be corrected for by observing the decay spectrum, little or no sample preparation is required for some samples, making neutron activation analysis less susceptible to contamination.
30.
Since the age of the object is usually the most significant detail, they try to use radiocarbon dating or neutron activation analysis to find out the real age of the object.
