Data evaluation of ^169yb-producing reactions by charged particles

Excitation functions for ^169yb production on low-medium energy accelerators, i.e. proton on 169Tin and natyb, deuteron on ^169Tm, and 4He ion on hatEr, were calculated by the ALICE/ASH and TALYS-1.0 codes. The target thickness was predicted by SRIM code. Theoretical integral yield for each reaction was compared with experimental data. The radionuclide purity of ^169yb from the ^169Tm（p, n）^169yb reaction was determined, and maximum cross section predicted by the ALICE/ASH and TALYS-1.0 codes was about 182 and 154 mb at 11 and at 9 MeV, respectively.
