Abstract

The neutron temperature at different irradiation positions in the research reactor FRM II was measured using thermometer labels together with lutetium standards. This was the first time to measure the local temperature at the irradiation positions with this combination. The simplified Westcott formalism was used to calculate the neutron temperature using Lu and g(Tn) factors from different data sources. The results showed agreement between neutron temperature according to the Lu method and the temperature showed on the labels. They can be used as a reliable alternative to determine the neutron temperature instead of using Lu standards in the extended k0 NAA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
