Preparing 201Tl from lead bombarded by protons of energy about 65 MeV

  • 1. Nuclear Research Institute, Kiev (USSR)

Description

Measurements have been made on the yields of 201Tl, 200Tl, and 202Tl from targets made of natural lead and ones enriched in 206Pb and 207Pb, which have been bombarded by protons of energy about 65 MeV. A thick 206Pb target (2.6 g/cm2) gave 201Tl with a yield of 15 +/- 2 x 107 Bq/μA x h and of radionuclide purity 95-96%. There is a discussion of using 201Tl made from 206Pb for nuclear-medicine purposes
