Excitation functions and thick target yields of (α,xn) and (α,αxn) reactions on 103Rh

Abstract

Excitation functions were determined by the ''stacked foil'' method at the Buenos Aires 60 inch Synchrocyclotron for the (α,xn) and (α,αxn) reactions on 103Rh, up to 55 MeV. Thick-target yields were calculated as a function of energy for the production of 105Ag and sup(106m)Ag.
