Activation yields of 209Bi(p, xn)207,206,205,204,203Po, and 209Bi(p, pxn) 207,206,205,204,203Bi reactions were measured up to 100 MeV to verify the Monte Carlo codes, FLUKA, MARS, and PHITS. In addition, the gap in the excitation functions of abovementioned radio-nuclei was filled. The target was arranged in a stack consisting of Bi, Al, Au foils and Pb plates. The proton beam intensity was...

The Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) operates the Meson production target stations E and M with 590 MeV protons of up to 2.4 mA. Pions and muons are produced in these targets for research in particle physics and for muon spin-resonance applications (muSR). The effective thickness of Target E is 4 cm or 6 cm. Both targets E and M consist of polycrystalline graphite and rotate with 1 Hz due to the...
