Dr B.S. Park (Institute for Basic Science)30/10/2025, 11:50Cyclotron for Hadron Therapy and Isotope ProductionContributed Oral Presentation
Several alpha-emitting radioisotopes, Ac-225, Ra-223, and Th-227, can be produced from natural thorium targets, primarily through nuclear reactions induced by a high-energy proton irradiation. These isotopes are of interest for targeted alpha therapy, a cancer treatment approach that utilizes the high energy of alpha particles to destroy cancer cells selectively. Ac-225 radioisotope decays...
