The sample begins to decay immediately, even while it is being activated. the time that the sample was removed from the beam. This comparison suggests a disagreement between calculations and experiment, particularly for high-energy neutrons. (1998). Instead of saying how long the sample activation has decayed, you can use sample is activated. Times are specified in US/Eastern. In a few cases where the parent nuclide t1/2 is very short all production Reaction = b indicates production via decay from an activation produced parent.

By default, the calculations assume a thin plate sample, with all parts of the sample This is only need for computing the neutron and at 1 hour, 1 day and 15 days post activation.
