A method is described for producing practical quantities of highpuriti, / sup 204/Bi by, the /sup 206/Pb(p,3n)/sup 204/Bi reaction. A simple elec trolytic separation method with good yield has been developed. The cross section for the above reaction was calculated for 32,MeV protons. Decay data for /supb 204/Bi-/ sup 204m/Pb equilibrium samples are also reported. (auth)
