Abstract

Abstract Experiments were performed to evaluate production of 72Se, parent radionuclide of the positron emitter 72As, at high energy at the Brookhaven Linac Isotope Producer (BLIP). Excitation functions for 75As(p, xn)72/75Se in the 52-105 MeV energy range were measured by irradiating thin gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers. Maximum cross section value for the natAs(p, 4n)72Se reaction in the energy range was 103±9 mb at 52±1 MeV. Production size GaAs and arsenic metal (As°) targets were irradiated with 136 μA and 165 μA beam current possessing an initial Linac energy of 117 MeV. A total of 3.77±0.1 GBq (102±3 mCi) of 72Se was produced from a GaAs target at a calculated target entrance energy of 105.4 MeV, and 13.8±0.3 GBq (373±8 mCi) of 72Se from an As° target at a calculated incident energy of 49.5 MeV irradiated for 116.5 h and 68.9 h, respectively.
