Abstract

Excitation functions of the natPt(d,x)192,193,194,195,196m2,196,198m,198,199Au, 195m,197Pt and 190(g+m1+0.086m2),192(g+m1),194mIr nuclear reactions were measured from the respective threshold up to 24MeV deuteron energy by using the stacked foil activation technique combined with HPGe gamma-ray spectrometry. Measured data were critically compared with the available literature data and theoretical data extracted from the TENDL-2013 library, and only partial agreement among them was found. Physical thick target yields for the investigated reaction products were also deduced and compared with the directly measured ones in the literature. The deduced yield curves indicate that a low energy cyclotron (<15MeV) and a highly enriched 198Pt target could be used to obtain 198,199Au in no carrier added form. All cross-sections for 190(g+m1+0.086m2),194mIr and those for 193,194,196m2,196,199Au, and 195m,197Pt in the lower energy region are reported for the first time.
