EXCITATION-FUNCTIONS FOR THE FORMATION OF THE NEUTRON DEFICIENT NUCLEI I-123, XE-123 AND CESIUM-123 - CALCULATED AND EXPERIMENTAL-DATA

The results of calculations of charged particle induced reaction cross sections for the production of the radioisotopes I-123, 123Cs and 123 Xe are discussed. The excitation functions 124Xe(p,2n), 124Xe(d,3n), 1 24Xe(p,pn + np), 124Xe(d,p2n), I-127(p,5n), Te-122(d,n), Te-123(p,n), Te-124(p,2n), Sb-121(a,2n) and Sb-123(alpha,4n) are calculated on the basis of a statistical model in the energy range up to 80 MeV. It is s hown that consideration of the gamma-radiation channel is very importa nt near the threshold, particularly for neutron deficient nuclei, and can drastically influence the results of calculations. The analysis pe rformed showed that the calculations with the ALICE code can serve as a partially successful evaluation for the excitation functions for var ious reactions.
