“…It should be noted that, after washing the target, the tritium content in the water varies greatly according to the data of different researchers. Thus, according to [13], the specific activity of 3 H in the wash water is 1.4 Bq/mL, while the authors of [8] give a significantly higher value of 92 Bq/mL. The reason for this discrepancy is not quite clear, but it may be due to different target design, volume (1.3 and 2.4 mL), target material (Nb and Ti), target purging mode, volume of wash water, and number of production cycles before target purging.…”
