Irradiation of Ytterbium Microsources in the SM-3 Reactor

The conditions for the irradiation of 168 Yb-enriched samples in reactors for obtaining sources to be used in brachytherapy are examined. The optimum irradiation conditions in the SM-3 high-flux reactor are determined. The computational methods are compared with the measurements.
