COAL ANALYSIS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An analysis system for analysing coal or other material causes the material to be bombarded with neutrons from a source, and this generates gamma rays from the material which are detected by a detector. The detector has scintillators which generate light when a gamma ray is detected, the light being detected by photomultiplies. Each gamma ray generates two other gamma rays, which may both be wholly absorbed in one or the other scintillator, or one absorbed in one scintillator and one in the other. By analysing these events, the spectrum of gamma rays may be obtained, giving the composition of the material. One preferred detector has an array of scintillators and coincident gamma ray detection events in three adjacent scintillators detected.
