چکیده
Excitation functions were measured for production of the (113,111,110)Sn, (115m,114m,113m,112m,111g,110g)In and (111m,109)Cd radioisotopes by bombardment of In targets with proton beams up to 70 MeV, some of them for the first time. The new results are compared with the earlier experimental data and with the theoretical data in the TENDL-2014 (Talys1.6 based) library. Thick target yields were deduced and application of the new data for production of medically relevant (110m)In,(111g)In,(113m)In and (114m)In, as well as applicability for thin layer activation (TLA) are discussed.

Activation cross sections of proton induced nuclear reactions on palladium up to 80MeV.
Activation cross sections of proton induced nuclear reactions on palladium were measured up to 80MeV by using the stacked foil irradiation technique and gamma ray spectrometry. The beam intensity, the incident energy and the energy degradation were controlled by a method based on flux constancy via normalization to the excitation functions of monitor reactions measured in parallel. Excitation f...
متن کاملExcitation functions of proton induced reactions on 68 Zn from threshold up to 71 MeV , with specific reference to the production of 67
The excitation function of the Zn(p, 2p)Cu reaction was measured radiochemically up to a proton energy of 71 MeV to obtain accurate data for production of the therapy related β−-emitting radioisotope Cu (T1/2 = 61.9 h). Investigations were also made on the (p, 2n) and (p, 3n) reactions on Zn. The experimental cross sections of the Zn(p, 2p)Cu, Zn(p, 2n)Ga and Zn(p, 3n)Ga reactions were compared...
متن کاملAssessment of secondary particles in breast proton therapy by Monte Carlo simulation code using MCNPX
Background: The present study aimed to investigate the equivalent dose in vital organs, including heart and lung, due to secondary particles produced during breast proton therapy. Materials and Methods: The numerical ORNL female-phantom was improved and simulated using the Monte Carlo MCNPX code. The depth-dose profile of proton beams with different energies was simulated. The proper energy ran...
متن کاملMeasurements of Cross-sections of the Neutron Threshold Reactions and Their Usage in High Energy Neutron Measurements at “energy plus Transmutation”
We measured neutron cross-sections of various threshold reactions using different quasimonoenergetic neutron sources. Our motivation for the cross-section measurements comes from the "Energy plus Transmutation" project. In this international project we use neutron activation foils for measurements of high energy neutron field, which is produced during the proton or deuteron irradiation of a thi...

Differential cross-sections for quasi-free π photoproduction from the proton and neutron bound in the deuteron have been measured for Eγ = 200 − 400 MeV at θ lab γ = 136.2 ◦ using the Glasgow photon tagger at MAMI, the Mainz 48 cm Ø × 64 cm NaI(Tl) photon detector and the Göttingen SENECA recoil detector. For the proton measurements made with both liquid deuterium and liquid hydrogen targets al...
