Description

Excitation functions of 86Y production via 86Sr(p,xn), 86Sr(d,xn), 85Rb(α,xn), 85Rb(3He,xn), and natZr(d,αxn) reactions were studied by means of ALICE-ASH code and the results were compared with ALICE-91 code and experimental data. The greatest nuclear reaction of cyclotron 86Y production was found out as 86Sr(p,n)86Y process. 86Y production yield was calculated too. A SrCO3 thick film was deposited on a copper substrate by sedimentation method. The deposited natSrCO3 was irradiated with 15 MeV proton at 30 μA current beam. The separation of Y from Cu and Sr was carried out by means of dual ion exchange chromatography.
