ENHANCED SEPARATION PROCESS FOR (76BR, 77BR AND 124I) PREPARATION AND RECOVERY OF EACH

摘要

An automated process for preparing and recovering SUP76/SUPBr, SUP77/SUPBr and SUP124/SUPI comprises (I) bombarding enriched SUP76 or 77/SUPSe or enriched SUP124/SUPTe with a beam of protons on a targeted disk respectively to produce SUP76/SUPBr, SUP77/SUPBr and SUP124/SUPI respectively wherein the target is selected from (a) a round tungsten disk with a depression at its center and (b) and inclined target having about a 20° inclination with respect to the beam direction and (II) recovering the SUP76/SUPBr, SUP77/SUPBr and SUP124/SUPI in an automated process comprising by placing the irradiated target face up in a quartz tube in the center of a high temperature furnace utilizing a target holder and heating the irradiated target sufficient to release and recover SUP76/SUPBr, SUP77/SUPBr and SUP124/SUPI therefrom.
