The productivity of the spallation reactions at proton energies of 100–660 MeV for accumulation of the radioactive isotopes and isomers has been studied experimentally. Spectra of Ta and Re targets activated at Dubna synchrocyclotron were measured using the methods of radiochemistry and gamma spectroscopy. Many radioactive products of the spallation and fission reactions are identified, and their yields are compared with the LAHET code simulations. Cross-sections σm and isomer-to-ground state ratios σm/σg are deduced for nuclear isomers, in particular, for high-spin isomers, as 178m2Hf, 179m2Hf and 177mLu. Spin distributions for the spallation-residue nuclei are estimated to understand the σm/σg ratios. Possibilities to optimize the methods for the long-lived isomers production are discussed, and it would be a necessary step on the way to accumulate such exotic radionuclides in milligram amount under reasonable cost and radiation safety conditions. |
