Knowledge of the cross sections of reactions of charged particles with target material is needed to understand well the mechanisms of nuclear reactions. One of the main application fields of nuclear technology and nuclear reactions is medicine. Radioisotopes are used in medicine and production of these radioisotopes is important. In the production processes, the cross sections must be known. For this purpose, in this study, theoretical cross sections of production of In isotopes by alpha irradiation have been calculated using Talys 1.6 nuclear reaction simulation code. The obtained results are compared with the existing experimental data.

In the nuclear medicine for the positron emission tomography, the injected positron emitter leads to two 511 keV γ-rays. One of the most promising radionuclides is 45 Sc. In this study, the main purpose was to investigate the excitation functions for the reactions 45 Sc (p, x). TALYS 1.6 nuclear reaction simulation code was used for the excitation functions. These calculated excitation functions have been discussed and compared with each other and with Experimental Nuclear Reaction Data Library (EXFOR).
