  1. Measurement and simulation of radionuclide product yields in iron from 400 AMeV carbon ions T.Ogawa, M.Morev, Takeshi Iimoto, Toshiso Kosako The university of Tokyo SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  2. In-Target γ-emitting fragments 400 MeV C ion Abstract Experiment Simulation (FLUKA) • Target fragment in Fe target • Bombarded by 400MeV/u C ion • Experiment and calculation with FLUKA • FLUKA • Projectile fragment, deep fragmentation : Underestimation (50%) • Isomer : Reasonable • Others : Good agreement

  3. Background • Activation in intermediate ~high energy • Problem in decommissioning • Monte-Carlo calculation codes • Ejectile yield ← Good measurements • Target fragment ← Few benchmark data Essential in activation estimation t 24Na, 43K, 54Mn d Particle Ejectile Be Target fragment SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  4. 0.15 cm Experiment • Irradiation (~10 h, Cooling) • Gamma spectrometry Disassemblage Cooling (avoid pile-up) HPGe 4.0 cm Measure activity one by one ☆Only decay γ-emmiting ☆detectable intensity ☆Medium ~ Long half-lived nuclides were measured Be-7, Na-22, Na-24, Mg-28, K-42, K-43, Sc-44m, Sc-46, Sc-47, Sc-48, V-48, Cr-48, Cr-51, Mn-52, Mn-54, Co-55, Co-56, Co-58 C (400MeV/u) 16 cm Collimated beam Fe 16 cm 6.85 cm SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  5. Simulation ~~FLUKA-2008~~ • Fe: Natural isotope composition • Impurities (C, P, Mn, S, Si) ←Minor effect • RQMD (A-A interaction) model Bq/mm 0.15 cm 11.35h exposure 1h cooling On-line calculation (RESNUCLE option) 4.0 cm 16 cm C (400MeV/u) 16 cm Depth Collimated beam Fe 6.85 cm SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  6. Results ~~Lighter than projectile~~ + Projectile fragments + Secondary particle induced • Projectile fragments • Underestimated (~50%) • Production in range • Underestimated • Direct or indirect Direct reaction X-sec or Secondary induced reaction underestimated SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  7. Results ~~ Deep fragmentation~~ • X-section underestimated • Secondary particle induced : underestimated • End of range: Underestimation X-sec underestimated by 50% Range ~5.1cm RQMD model limitation 100 MeV/u Secondary particle induced reaction SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  8. Results ~~ Isomer~~ • Isomer production • 1/2 ground, 1/2 meta-stable assumption : Not critical ・Close atomic numbers ・Similar underestimation SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  9. Results ~~ Isomer-2~~ • Isomer production • Mn-52 g • Very good agreement  21.1 m 54.9 s 0.5 5.591 d 8.275 8.275 h 0.5 Detectable gamma SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  10. Results ~~As heavy as target~~ • Severely underestimated (~1/300) • Low E light ion (α, t, etc) induced reactions? SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  11. Results ~~other nuclides~~ • Higher contribution from secondary particles RQMD model limitation 100 MeV/u Secondary particle induced SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN

  12. Conclusion • Fe target + 400MeV/u C ion • Experiment & Simulation • Overall good agreement • Projectile fragment : Under? (50%) • Deep fragmentation : Under (50%) • Shallow fragmentation by secondary particles : Good agreement • Isomer assumption : Reasonable • Others : Good agreement SATIF-10, 2-4 June 2010, CERN
