Abstract
Feasibility of 61Cu production in high radionuclidic purity form via natZn(p,x)61Cu nuclear process is discussed. Based on the experimentally available cross-sections of the natZn(p,x)61Cu, natZn(p,x)60Cu and natZn(p,x)64Cu nuclear processes the usefulness of the natZn(p,x)61Cu process for high-scale production is questionable in the 22→12 MeV energy range.
