title: Experimental studies on the proton-induced activation reactions of molybdenum in the energy range 22-67 MeV.
abstract: The production cross-sections of (99,93m)Mo, (96,95,95m,94)Tc, (96,95,92m,90)Nb, (89,88,86)Zr and (88,87,86)Y radionuclides for proton-induced reactions on molybdenum were measured with molybdenum targets of natural isotopic composition using a stacked-foil activation technique in the energy range 22-67 MeV. The thick target integral yields were also deduced for each reaction using the measured cross-sections from the respective threshold up to 67 MeV. The results have given new data for all of the investigated radionuclides. The results of the present experiment showed excellent agreement with the earlier reported data in the lower energy region.
