Summary
The production yield of Pm-147 using Nd-146 targets in the HANARO 30 MW research reactor was evaluated through MCNP–CINDER coupling analysis. Although several short-lived impurity isotopes are initially produced, a cooling period enables the recovery of high-purity Pm-147. The predicted yield after cooling corresponds to 1.33 Ci/g of Nd₂O₃ target, demonstrating the feasibility of this production route for high-specific-activity Pm-147 suitable for advanced betavoltaic applications.
