Study of non-1/v reaction nuclides using k0 – neutron activation analysis at the Malaysian Nuclear Agency research reactor (Kajian tindak balas Nuklid yang tidak mematuhi hukum 1/ν menggunakan k 0- analisis pengaktifan neutron di Reaktor Penyelidikan Agensi Nuklear Malaysia)

The modified spectral index r(α); the Westcott gLu(Tn) factor and absolute neutron temperature Tn were determined for the handling of non-1/ν (n, γ) reaction based on the Westcott formalism using k0-neutron activation analysis (k0-NAA) method at the Malaysian Nuclear Agency (MNA) research reactor.
