Abstract

The excitation functions of 96Nb, 95mNb, 95gNb, 92mNb, 91mNb, 90Nb, 95Zr, 89Zr, 88Zr, 86Zr, 88Y, 87mY, 87gY, 86Y were measured up to 70 MeV proton energy by using the stacked foil technique and the activation method. The new data were compared with the critically analyzed experimental data in the literature and with the TALYS based model results in TENDL-2013 library. The possible role of the investigated reactions in the production of medically relevant 90Nb, 95mNb, 89Zr, 88Y radionuclides is discussed.
