Abstract
47Sc is a theranostic radionuclide under the spotlight of the scientific community thanks to its potential for SPECT imaging and therapeutic applications. This work presents the recent measurements of proton-induced nuclear reaction cross-sections aimed at 47Sc production using enriched 48Ti, 49Ti and 50Ti targets from 23 up to 70 MeV. Since the co-production of contaminant isotopes is a key issue, and 46Sc is the main one having a longer half-life than 47Sc, the 48/49/50Ti(p,x)47Sc and 46Sc cross sections are presented and compared with the scarce literature data and TALYS estimations.
