Excitation functions for the production of the 181,182m,182g,183,184g,186 Re and 183,184 Ta radionuclides from proton bombardment on natural tungsten were measured using the stacked-foil Re has remarkable applications in the field of nuclear medicine, whereas the data of 183,184g Re and 183 Ta have potential applications in thin layer activation analysis and biomedical tracer studies, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
