摘要

Sensitivity curves for detecting any element/isotope with Z = 20 to Z = 90, through 1, 2 and 3 particles emission reactions, activated with protons, deuterons and alphas of up to 35 MeV energy have been estimated and presented in graphical form. From these curves the detection sensitivity of any element/isotope in the aforementioned range, in any given matrix, can be directly obtained for an infinitely thick, a moderately thick or even a thin target. Furthermore, these curves would also help in selecting the most suitable nuclear reaction for the measurement of a particular element or isotope in a given matrix, and would also provide an indication of the unwanted and interfering activities being produced simultaneously.
