Abstract:
The production and radiochemical separation of 52Fe from 4He irradiation of enriched 50Cr target is described. Methods developed for the recovery of the target material (50Cr) are also described. The yield of 52Fe at 38 MeV incident 4He energy is 1667 +/- 133 MBq/C (163 +/- 13 microCi/microAh) at end of bombardment and the contamination of 55Fe is only 0.008%.
