Abstract
Summary
Employing the activation technique in combination with radiochemical separations and high-resolution γ-ray spectroscopy fission neutron spectrum averaged cross sections were measured for several (n, p) and (n, α) reactions on isotopes of zirconium; our measurements constitute the first systematic study. The special interest was in the investigation of the 90Zr(n, p)90Y reaction for the production of no-carrier-added 90Y in a nuclear reactor. At a fast neutron flux density of 7.5 × 1013 cm−2 s−1 and an irradiation time of 120 h, using 100% enriched 90Zr target 0.548 GBq of no-carrier-added 90Y per batch could be produced. The method is thus suitable for medium-scale production of this radionuclide.
