Abstract:
The excitation functions of deuteron-induced reactions on 169Tm were measured using the stacked-foil method and high resolution gamma-ray spectrometry. The production cross sections of a medical radionuclide 169Yb were investigated. The result was compared with the previous experiments and found to be in good agreement. In addition to 169Yb, the production cross sections of Tm isotopes, 170Tm, 168Tm and 167Tm, were measured. These results were compared with the TALYS calculations taken from the TENDL-2015 online data library.
