Possibility of Increasing Cyclotron Production of 123I at the NRC Kurchatov Institute

A method for improving the production of the radioisotope 123 I in proton cyclotrons, which makes it possible to increase its technological yield by 2–3 times, is reported. For this purpose, it is proposed to introduce hydrogen into a target with 124 Xe, which makes it possible to extract from it th...

Zusammenfassung:A method for improving the production of the radioisotope 123 I in proton cyclotrons, which makes it possible to increase its technological yield by 2–3 times, is reported. For this purpose, it is proposed to introduce hydrogen into a target with 124 Xe, which makes it possible to extract from it the 123 I formed over the irradiation time on decay of the accumulated 123 Xe.
