Production of Sn and Sn by photonuclear reactions on natural antimony.

Natural antimony targets were irradiated in a 60 MeV bremsstrahlung beam and gamma spectrometric measurements were performed. The goal was to establish the yield of Sn, a radionuclide with great potential for application in medicine. Considering that Sn is predominantly produced through a photonuclear reaction in which an charged particle is emitted (Sb(γ,p3n)), the yield of this tin isotope is much lower than the yields of several antimony isotopes produced in (γ,xn) reactions.

Production of Sc in photonuclear reactions on Ti targets at the bremsstrahlung endpoint energy of 30 and 40 MeV.

Photonuclear reactions on titanium targets of natural composition at the bremsstrahlung endpoint energy of 30 and 40 MeV have been investigated. The yields of Sc at the end of the bombardment were measured to be (0.45 ± 0.

Investigation of I production using electron accelerator.

The possibility of I isotope production with the help of the high-intensity bremsstrahlung photons produced by the electron beam of the LUE50 linear electron accelerator at the A.I. Alikhanyan National Science Laboratory (Yerevan Physics Institute [YerPhI]) is considered.
