Description

We have produced radioactive isotope (RI) via photonuclear reaction using a 60-MeV electron linac at Research Center for Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University. Although electron accelerator based RI production is practiced in many facility, beam parameters and irradiation condition such as converter material and distance between converter and target are unique in each facility. We have studied the size and divergence of bremsstrahlung γ-ray at our target position, and estimated the photon flux of our irradiation system employing equivalent quanta in yield. This paper reports these parameters of our irradiation system. (author)
