[Isotope-prod] Writing assignments and Outline

Hi George,

In the beginning we (George Kharashvili and myself) were trying to cover 
different isotopes / parent targets / energies / possible target 
arrangements. Do you think all of that needs to be included in the report.

For example, should we discuss Th-230 target, or it's beyond our reach. 
If we could find 500g of Th-230, I believe we'd prefer to use it, and 
wouldn't try to optimize and design the system for Ra-226 target. 
Otherwise, development and optimization of Radium target setup should be 
done in more detail and we should forget about Th-230.

Similar situation with Cu-67 isotope production. Should we list all the 
options, including production from Zinc targets, and beam energy 
optimizations for different possible engineering solutions?

Any hint on the importance / market value of Lu-177. Should we consider 
its production from Hafnium.

If we start writing now, it seems it will be not a proposal for the 
isotope production for the market, -- but for isotope production R&D -- 
and I guess we should avoid that. Could we try to develop a consensus 
limiting our options.

Regards,
Pavel
