Neutron based non-destructive analysis methods – High Resolution Time of Flight powder diffraction (HR-TOF-D), Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) and Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) – were applied for the investigation of archaeological bronze objects at Budapest Neutron Centre (BNC). The quantitative element analysis and phase composition analysis as well as microstructure characterization of Copper and Bronze Age axes were performed in order to reconstitute information of their ancient fabrication (hammering or casting) technology.
