Abstract

The paper reviews some of the neutron acti- vation logging methods which depend entirely on the half lives and radiation intensity of the acti vation products. The elements which are most conveniently identified in this manner include ox- ygen, silicon and aluminum. Field examples of the logs and/or measurements involved in each of these determinations are included in the paper.
