Neutron flux measurement using radioactivation methods is a vital technique for accurately determining the intensity and energy distribution of neutrons in environments like nuclear reactors or research facilities. This process involves exposing specific materials to a neutron field, causing them to become radioactive through nuclear reactions. By precisely measuring the induced radioactivity of these activated samples, scientists can deduce the original neutron flux, providing essential data for reactor physics, material characterization, and neutron dosimetry, crucial for both safety and experimental applications.
