Popis:	We have measured excitation functions of 209Bi(7Li, 5n)211Rn, 209Bi(7Li, 6n)210Rn, and other reactions, with the aim of realizing a 211Rn/211At generator for cancer therapy. On the basis of a comparison with theoretical predictions, we found that nuclides of 210At are produced via a break-up process rather than from the 209Bi(7Li, p5n)210At reaction. The excitation functions obtained in this study provide the most favorable conditions for 211Rn production in terms of available radioactivity and nuclide purity of the irradiated material.
