Radioisotope program at LAMPF

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4323817
From summer study group on practical applications of accelerators; Los Alamos, New Mexico, USA (27 Aug 1973). The status of the program at LAMPF for producing isotopes for research, diagnostic, and therapeutic applications in medicme by proton-induced spallation reactions is summarized. On the basis of cross section and yield measurements, yields of /sup 82/Sr, /sup 123/I, /sup 125/ I, /sup 129/Cs, and /sup 127/Xe from LAMPF are projected. The development of recovery procedures for each of these isotopes, except /sup 129/Cs has been completed to the extent that attention is now being focussed on scaling these procedures to hot cell operations. The Isotope Production Facility is briefly described. (WHK)
