A new approach to targetry and cyclotron production of 45Ti by proton irradiation of 45Sc [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2014
Titanium-45 with a half-life of 3.09 hours decays by emission of positrons (85%) and the electron capture process (15%). These properties make this radionuclide useful in the diagnosis of tumors by positron emission tomography.

Boron Nitride Nanotube Cyclotron Targets for Recoil Escape Production of Carbon-11

Instruments, 2019
Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) were investigated as a target media for cyclotron production of 11C for incident beam energy at or below 11 MeV. Both the 11B(p,n)11C and 14N(p,α)11C nuclear reactions were utilized.
