Monte Carlo simulation and experimental studies of the production of neutron-rich medical isotopes using a particle accelerator.
… medicine lead to an increasing demand for the production of radioisotopes with suitable nuclear and chemical properties. Furthermore, from the literature it is evident that the production of radioisotopes using charged-particle accelerators instead of nuclear reactors is gaining increasing …

Alternative design concepts for the electron to photon converter in the accelerator based production of technetium-99m
The photonuclear production of radioisotopes using electron LINAC bremsstrahlung sources offers an industry alternative to reactor and ion beam production methods. One such method under development is the utilization of the Giant Dipole Resonance in the (y,n) reaction cross-section. This method is …

High Capacity Heat Exchangers for Recirculating 18F Radionuclide Production Targets
… recirculating water targets for the cyclotron production of high yields of 18F fluoride for PET radiopharmaceuticals. Flourine-18 is commonly produced through proton irradiation of 18O enriched water by the 18O(p,n)18F reaction. Heat deposited in the target fluid by the proton beam is …
