METHOD FOR PRODUCING ISOTOPES, IN PARTICULAR METHOD FOR PRODUCING RADIOISOTOPES BY MEANS OF GAMMA-BEAM IRRADIATION

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing a radionuclide product B. The method comprises the following steps: Providing a target comprising an amount of a nuclide A, providing a ? beam and irradiating the target by the ? beam and thereby transmuting at least a portion of the amount of the nuclide A into the product B. Providing the target comprises selecting a nuclide A, such that A is transmutable into product B by a ? induced nuclear reaction. Moreover, providing the ? beam comprises providing a ? beam by Compton back- scattering of laser light from an electron beam.
