Compact Accelerator-Based Production of Carrier-free ${}^{177}$Lu From 18 MeV $D^{+}$ on [${}^{176}$Yb]Yb${}_2$O${}_3$

Austin A. Morris, Tianhao Wei, Zhi Wang +3

We use experimental and simulated excitation functions to estimate the yield of deuteron activations on a [${}^{176}$Yb]Yb${}_2$O${}_3$ target enriched to 99%. Subsequent calculations ar…
