Popis: To study low yields of fission products from proton-induced reactions we introduce two activation methods based on target stacking with suppression of otherwise dominating evaporation and spallation products; one method using thin Mylar foils which only transmit the fission products, the other one using cylindrical catchers at both sides of the target foils. The methods require no radiochemistry. Tests have been performed with targets of decreasing atomic number and decreasing fission cross-sections. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
