Survey of Nuclear Activations for Intense Proton and Deuteron Beams
Abstract
Proton- and deuteron-induced nuclear reactions which produce radioactivities are surveyed for application to experiments with intense ion beams from pulsed power generators. Positive Q-value reactions with up to 10-MeV protons or deuterons on carbon, aluminum, titanium-alloy, steel, and brass targets are identified. For each radioactivity, the half-life and decay products are tabulated. Measured cross sections from the published literature are used to identify reaction yields. For protons, thick-target yields are evaluated for (p, n) reactions on these targets. For deuterons, thick-target yields are evaluated for several (d,n), (d,p) and (d,a) reactions on these targets....
