The majority of batch targets for the cyclotron production of radionuclides at iThemba LABS typically have circular disc or flat cylindrical shapes, with the beam normal to the circular surfaces and usually swept (or wobbled) to reduce the beam power density. These targets are completely surrounded by fast-flowing cooling water during bombardment. Target materials that need protection from the...

Various applications utilize an impinging stream of gas for the cooling of metal foils and/or other material specimens while under bombardment in an accelerated particle beam. Helium is often used for this purpose but other gasses are also sometimes employed. Noble gasses can provide cooling as well as an inert environment for the protection of the foils or specimens.

Natural titanium activated with high energy proton beam results production of some valuable radionuclides applicable in medicine and industry. In this study we measured the production cross-sections of 43,44m,44g,46,47,48Sc, 48V radionuclides from their respective threshold to 45 MeV in natTi(p,x) reaction. Well-known stacked-foil activation technique and off-line gamma-ray spectrometry system...
