This study aims to enhance and advance the technique of analysis by neutron activation, which is widely utilized in various industries. The use of alternative neutron sources, rather than nuclear reactors, is a crucial approach to prevent incidents. The primary objective of this research was to assess the neutron flux profile, lateral gamma flux, and axial gamma flux to determine the optimal location of a sample for efficient neutron irradiation. Furthermore, the feasibility of using an $${}^{241}$$ Am–Be neutron source facility as an alternative to a nuclear reactor for irradiation was evaluated through simulations conducted with the MCNP6 code.
