  2. 228. Accelerator Based Production of Mo-99: Target Thermal Performance
    Sergey Chemerisov (Argonne National Laboratory)
    3/20/24, 1:45 PM
    Medical Applications of Accelerators
    Invited Talk

    The National Nuclear Security Administration’s (NNSA), in partnership with commercial entities and the US national laboratories, is working to accelerate the establishment of a reliable domestic supply of Mo-99 for nuclear medicine while also minimizing the civilian use of HEU. One of the potential technologies is utilizing the photonuclear reaction in an enriched Mo-100 target to produce...

  3. 224. Isotope Production in the mid-mass Region with Photonuclear Reactions
    Robert Bentley (New Mexico Institute of Mining and Techology)
    3/20/24, 2:10 PM
    Medical Applications of Accelerators
    Oral Presentation

    Measurements and analysis of photonuclear cross sections are essential to a more fundamental understanding of nuclear-electromagnetic interactions and structure. Such research also contributes to the fields of radioisotope production, forensics, astrophysics, and medical imaging and therapy. To investigate this, bremsstrahlung photons are produced via an electron linear accelerator and impinge...

  4. 183. Comparative Evaluation of Electron Beam Vaccine Development Strategies High (HEEB), Medium (MEEB), and Low-energy Electron Beam (LEEB) with Gamma Irradiation
    Dr Chandni Praveen (National Center for Electron Beam Research - Texas A&M University)
    3/20/24, 2:30 PM
    Medical Applications of Accelerators
    Oral Presentation

    Globally, there is an urgent need to develop effective vaccine technologies to address the ever-increasing problems of emerging, multi-drug-resistant pathogens. Identifying vaccine development technologies that are rapid, cost effective, environmentally friendly, and able to impart broad-spectrum protection, and lasting immunity is a great challenge. Ionizing radiation is a versatile...
