2 European collaborations AMS at VERA / ANU / ETH / ANSTO neutron activations at IRMM / KIT / BRR / PTB
3 Motivation: 238 U(n, )/ 232 Th(n, ): E n > thermal ratio of capture to fission of the fissile isotopes existing data via TOF and detections of prompt -rays; multiple scattering corrections due to large sample size in previous exp.? (e.g. 2 gram) HPRL (NEA) listed = highest priority AMS: mg samples large discrepancies above thermal E n k eff in reactor technology: even 5-10% discrepancy in cross section too much very few exp. data above thermal energies AMS: atom counting activation + AMS is an independent method; no influence from fission channel! discrepancy of evaluations! new method does not rely on previous drawbacks simple direct method!

31 Conclusion - actinides AMS represents an independent method for studying nuclear reactions leading to long-lived radionuclides direct method: atom counting as isotope ratio; i.e. no sophisticated data reduction or corrections required not a universal method AMS is used for some 25 radionuclides if it can be applied usually very (the most) sensitive method can serve as an important tool to provide some anchor points can it help to solve the Au-standard issue? new neutron-producing facilities (FRANZ, Frankfurt, Germany), SARAF (Israel) offer a much higher kev-neutron flux
