Abstract

Selected reactions with well-defined excitation functions can be used to monitor the parameters of charged particle beams. The frequently used reactions for monitoring alpha particle beams are the 27Al(,x)22,24Na, natTi(,x)51Cr, natCu(,x)66,67Ga and natCu(,x)65Zn reactions. The excitation functions for these reactions were studied using the activation method and stacked target irradiation technique to crosscheck and to compare the above six reactions. Thin, well defined metallic foils with natural isotopic composition were stacked together in sandwich targets and were irradiated at the VHF cyclotron of RIKEN with an alpha particle beam of E= 51.2 MeV. The activity of the target foils were assessed by using high-resolution gamma spectrometers based on high purity Ge detectors. The data sets of the six processes were crosschecked with each other to provide consistent, cross-linked numerical cross section data.
