Radionuclide production capabilities of the Russia State Scientific Ce
nter, the Research Institute of Atomic Reactors (RIAR) are reviewed. R
adionuclides routinely produced are as follows: transplutonium element
s Am-243, Cm244-248, Bk-249, Cf-249 Cf-252 and high specific activity
radionuclides Gd-153, P-33, Sn-113,Sn-119m, W-188, Ni-63, Fe-55,Fe-59,
Cr-51, Mn-54, Sr-89. Other HSA radionuclides (Ba-133, Zn-65, Sb-124,
Ca-45, Co-60, Ir-192, Yb-169, Tm-170 Se-75) are also available from RI
AR. Besides radioactive preparations RIAR produces ionising neutron (C
f-252), gamma (Co-60, Ir-192, Se-75, Gd-153) and alpha (Cm-244) source
s for medicine, industry and research. A short description of the tech
nology developed is presented. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All righ
