[Isotope-prod] Th-230 target

[Pavel Degtiarenko]

Hi All,
I did some testing of the model for Ac-225 production on Th-230 target 
at 12 MeV. Please see the attached PowerPoint (the results should be 
viewed in "Presentation Mode" full screen to see different decay times). 
Some features are attractive: (1) generally low radiation levels after 
irradiation, (2) no U-233 produced, and (3) producing the "milking cow", 
Th-229 will generate Ac-225 steadily for thousands of years. May be 
someone would know where to get 500 gram of Th-230 and how much will it 
cost....
Best regards,
Pavel
