Producion of 67Ga by deuteron bombardment of natural zinc

Production cross sections of 68Ga and radioactive by-products in deuteron-induced reactions on natural zinc

“…The normalized data on 66 Zn can be compared with our data in the region. The data reported by Steyn and Meyer (1973) agree well with our measured excitation function. The data by Gilly et al (1963) and Vlasov et al (1957) are higher than our data.…”

“…The present result is shown in Fig. 4 with the experimental data studied earlier on nat Zn (Bonardi et al, 2003;Fateh et al, 1996;Khandaker et al, 2015;Nassiff and Münzel, 1972;Šimečková et al, 2017;Tárkányi et al, 2004) and 66 Zn (Bissem et al, 1980;Gilly et al, 1963;Steyn and Meyer, 1973;Vlasov et al, 1957;Williams and Irvine, 1963) and the TENDL-2017 data (Koning et al, 2019).…”

“…The physical yield of 67 Ga is presented in Fig. 12 in comparison with the previous experimental data (Bonardi et al, 2003;Dmitriev et al, 1991;Krasnov et al, 1972;Steyn and Meyer, 1973). The data by Dmitriev et al (1991) and Bonardi et al (2003) show higher values than ours at the higher energy region.…”

Proton and deuteron activation measurements at the NPI and future plans in SPIRAL2/NFS

“…The present data are shown in Figs. 1-10 in comparison with EXFOR database [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] data and with evaluated data from the EAF 2007 [18] and TENDL 2014 [19] libraries. All evaluated data are corrected/normalized to the natural abundance of the sample.…”

Iron Oxide Nanoradiomaterials: Combining Nanoscale Properties with Radioisotopes for Enhanced Molecular Imaging

“…Gallium-67 is a gamma emitter with a long half-life (3.26 d); it decays to stable Zn by electron capture without β emission. It can be produced in particle accelerators using different nuclear reactions: 67 Zn(p,n) 67 Ga, 68 Zn(p,2n) 67 Ga [ 111 ], 66 Zn(d,n) 67 Ga, and 67 Zn(d,2n) 67 Ga [ 112 , 113 ]. Gallium can be finally separated from Zn by ion-exchange chromatography or by liquid extraction [ 114 ].…”
