Theoretical Model Predictions for Production of Medically Used Radionuclides on Alpha Induced with Cobalt-59 At Energies of 25 - 172 MeV
Y. Tiguaded | F. K. Amanuel
This study used the theoretical nuclear model codes COMPLET and TALYS-1.95 to make theoretical predictions of the medically important production cross-sections for Chromium-51, Manganese-54, Iron-59, Cobalt-59 and Cobalt-60 radionuclides produced in the interaction of alpha- projectile with Cobalt-59 target ≈ 25 – 172 MeV alpha-energies. The results were compared with the measured values in the EXFOR data library. Pearson's correlation coefficient indicates a strong and positive correlation between the predicted and the previously measured medically important production cross-sections for Chromium-51, Manganese-54, Iron-59, Cobalt-59, and Cobalt-60 radionuclides. Further, the results showed that except for Chromium-51, the COMPLET code predicts more successful outcomes than the TALYS-1.95.
