Abstract
A software application useful for optimization and maximizing radionuclide production without exceeding the power limits of the target material or holder has been developed. The software (TYtool) can be used for target optimization including yield calculations vs time, thickness, and incident energy, W/mm through the target, and automated target thickness optimization with the Makkonen-Craig & Helariutta − or the novel Yield/Wapproach. TYtool also facilitates graphical representation of many basic plots such as cross section, mass stopping power, activity output, projected range and it is useful for many different particles, reactions, radionuclides via the default cross section data base or the import function for cross section and mass stopping power. The software is available for free at: https://gitlab.com/NM_Karolinska_Solna/TYtool.
