Iodine-124 production: Excitation function for the {sup 124}Te(d,2n){sup 124}I and {sup 124}Te(d,3n){sup 123}I reactions from 7 to 24 MeV

The excitation function for the production of I-124 and I-123 from deuterons on tellurium-124 has been measured over the energy interval of 7.5 to 23.6 MeV. The target used was a compressed tellurium powder target. The thick target yields for both radioisotopes have been calculated, radiochemical purity was determined and recovery of the isotopically enriched tellurium has been investigated.
