radionuclide production

NKE code serves as a tool to visualize base nuclear physical properties (half-life, neutron reaction cross-sections, the data on radioactive decay channels, etc.) and to analyze the information on the total radioactive isotope set as a single whole. Such analysis may appear extremely useful at a choice of new perspective nuclides for the specific practical application. The convenient form of such information representation is the format of widely known nuclide chart ('Karlsruher Nuklidkarte').

hainSolver code is designed for nuclide transmutation simulation, spontaneous decays or with account of neutron irradiation. The depression of a thermal neutrons flux, resonance self-shielding of isotopes during an irradiation, and the irradiation schedule (the schedule of the reactor work and rearrangement of an irradiated target in various positions) are taken into account.

MySQL2OOB code serves as a tool to convert data from MySQL database (test_2003_mdb.sql - half-life, neutron reaction cross-sections, the data on radioactive decay channels, etc.) for other ORIP_XXI codes. Under development!

ChainFinder code is to search for transmutation chains that could be realized for isotope production by means of neutron irradiations.

TYtool: Target & Yield Optimization Tool

A software application useful for optimization and maximizing radionuclide production without exceeding the power limits of the target material or holder.

Provides fast computer aided calculations of optimal target thicknesses, particle energies and beam currents based on user input of particle energy, current range, and power limit of target and or holder.

Facilitates graphical representation of many basic plots such as cross section, mass stopping power, activity output, projected range and it is useful for many different particles, reactions and radionuclides.
