ABSTRACT
The present work reports an analysis of the production yield of residues from the 6Li ï¼ 181Ta reaction in a low-energy regime. The experimental yield of 183gOs, 183mOs, 182Os, 183Re, 183Ta, 182m2Ta, and 180Ta have been measured in the 27-43 MeV energy window and compared with equilibrium and pre-equilibrium model calculations under the framework of the nuclear reaction model code, EMPIRE-3.2.2. The maximum yield measured for 183gOs is 80.5 ± 14.9 MBq/C at 40.2 MeV energy in a 2.3 mg/cm2 thick Ta target corresponding to a cross-section of 360.1 ± 34.4 mb from the 181Ta(6Li,4n)183Os reaction and that for 183Re is 1.36 ± 0.4 MBq/C at 42.75 MeV in a 2.4 mg/cm2 thick target. The model estimations agree well with the experimental yields of 183gOs and 183Re. The possible production of stable residues has been estimated using the model-predicted cross-section in the studied energy range. A comparison of production yields of 183m,gOs from 6Li- and 7Li-induced reaction on Ta demonstrates the 6Li reaction as a better candidate. Thick target yields have been evaluated for Os and Re isotopes.
