A method is provided for producing first and second radioactive isotopes using an accelerated particle beam that is directed to a first material and the first radioactive isotope is produced by a first nuclear reaction based on the interaction of the particle beam with the first material, said particle beam is also slowed down and subsequently directed to a second material, and the second radioactive isotope is produced by a second nuclear reaction based on the interaction of the particle beam with the second material. The effective cross-section for the induction of the first nuclear reaction at a first peak for a first particle energy is higher than an effective cross-section for the induction of the second nuclear reaction at a second peak for a second particle energy. A corresponding device includes an acceleration unit, a first exposure target having the first material and a second exposure target having the second material. |
