Summary

We conducted extensive studies on nuclear reaction cross sections using both the Tandem Accelerator and the TRIGA reactor, with the goal of developing production routes of some novel medical radionuclides. Our research primarily focused on (p,γ) and (p,n) reactions involving light- and medium-mass targets]. Several targets were also irradiated with fast neutrons in the TRIGA reactor core to identify viable production routes and to measure integral cross sections
