Abstract

The rotating rig at the Danish DR-3 reactor was used for irradiation of samples with masses from a hundred micrograms to several hundred grams. The pneumatic post for uranium delayed neutron counting was used for automatic sequential irradiation of samples subdivided into up to 24 aliquots, each with a volume of 7 cm3. The cumulative samples were measured in polyethylene irradiation containers in a specially designed radial holder.
