Production cross section of 67Ga and 68Ga from interaction of Li7 beam on Cu target

Scoring

  1. Add another pair of cards (it can also be on the same unit, with a different detector name).
  2. The card to be added is exactly the one I wrote down: a MATERIAL card redefining the pre-defined COPPER material in order to select AIR as alternate material for ionisation processes. COPPER is the SDUM (unlabelled field in Flair) and AIR is WHAT(5) (dE/dx in Flair), see the manual.
  3. Yes.
  4. Particle charge coincides indeed with the ion atomic number. The point is that USRYIELD requires to specify the scoring range of two selected physical quantities. I suggested to use particle charge since it’s easy to understand and convenient from the normalization point of view. For your purposes, you are not interested in the differential information, rather to the integral over the two quantities’ ranges, but you need to make sure that, whichever physical quantity you select, the input ranges do not cut out part of the desired isotope yield. The choice of particle charge easily fulfils this requirement and avoids an additional normalization factor, since the suggested particle charge range limits define an unit interval.
  5. Yes.
  6. Yes.
