Abstract
This work reports the production cross-section data for seventy-one radionuclides produced by 0.3 GeV–1.7 GeV protons impinging on thin tantalum targets. For that purpose, activation experiments were performed using the COSY synchrotron at FZ Jülich utilizing the stacked-foils technique and γ-ray spectrometry with high-purity germanium detectors. The Al-27(p,x)Na-24 reaction has been used as monitor reaction. All experimental data have been systematically compared with the existing literature. The excitation functions of Te-116, I-123, Dy-153 and Er-158 are reported for the first time.
