Nuclear data for the cyclotron production of 117 Sb and 90 Nb

Abstract: This presented study is to make comparison of cross sections to produce 117Sb and 90Nb via different reactions with particle incident energy up to 70 MeV as a part of systematic studies on particle-induced activations on enriched Sn, Y2O3 and ZrO2 targets, theoretical calculation of production yield, calculation of required thickness of target and suggestion of optimum reaction to produce Antimony-117 and Niobium-90.

“…There are several established and potential medical radioisotopes among Mo, Nb and Zr elements, such as 99 Mo, 93m Mo (Sadeghi et al, 2010), 95g Nb (Matthews and Molinaro, 1962), 90g Nb (Milad and Mahdi, 2011) and 89g Zr (see e.g. (Link et al, 2017) and references therein).…”

“…The emission of b + (E mean = 0.66 MeV and E max = 1.5 MeV) from 90 Nb makes it especially promising for the immuno-PET and clinical applications [11,12]. Only limited excitation functions for the alpha-induced reactions on 89 Y are available in the various energy ranges [13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. In the present work, we measured the excitation functions of 89g,m Nb, 90 Nb, 91m Nb, 92m Nb, 88 Zr, 89 Zr, 87g,m Y, 88 Y, 90m Y, and 91m Y in the 89 Y(a,x) reactions by the stacked-foil activation and off-line c-ray spectrometric technique in the energy range between their respective reaction threshold and 45 MeV at the MC-50 cyclotron of the Korean Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences (KIRAMS), Korea.…”

“…These reactions play a prominent role in astrophysical processes [12]. They are used to obtain radioactive sources used in medicine [13][14][15], including radionuclide therapy, immunology, etc. Among radiopharmaceutical products, produced by such reactions there are also those that contain nuclear isomers, in particular 89m Zr [16].…”
