The database contains evaluated cross sections for reactions induced by light charged-particles with incident energies up to several tens of MeV (maximum 100 MeV). Production cross sections for the most important diagnostic radioisotopes are given. 16 reactions are devoted to gamma emitters, 10 reactions devoted to positron emitters. Cross sections for beam monitor reactions are given for 22 reactions induced by protons, deuterons, 3-He, and alpha particles.
Complete documentation is available, including evaluation methodology, detailed bibliography, graphical and tabulated results. A hardcopy was published as IAEA-TECDOC-1211, May 2001, (pdf, 5.2 MB).
Definitions of the quantities given - production yields and cross sections - can be found here (pdf,15 kB).
The database was developed under the IAEA Coordinated Research Project: "Development of reference charged particle cross section database for medical radioisotope
production", (F41014, CRP, 1995-1999).

The online database was developed by S. Takács (ATOMKI) in 2003. |
The database was upgraded by S. Takács (ATOMKI) in 2007. |
The monitor reactions were re-evaluated in the IAEA Coordinated Research Project: "Nuclear Data for Charged-particle Monitor Reactions and Medical Isotope Production", 2012-2017, (F41029). |
