  • several HPGe on surface or 300' level dedicated to NAA.
  • send samples out for irradiation
  • sample transport issues and scheduling
  • TRIGA accelerator proposed for NNBAR
    • $200k additional cost will provide concurrent NAA irradiation and prompt gamma activation measurements on site
    • thermal n flux 1012 to 1013 n/cm2/s
    • fast n flux = 1011 n/cm2/s
    • Not ready for at least 4 years after DUSEL start
