Chris Wagner: The role of Eden Radioisotopes in the future of nuclear medicine
Chris Wagner has more than 40 years of experience in nuclear medicine, beginning as a clinical practitioner before moving into leadership roles at companies like Mallinckrodt (now Curium) and Nordion. His knowledge of both the clinical and the manufacturing sides of nuclear medicine laid the groundwork for helping to found Eden Radioisotopes, a start-up venture that intends to make diagnostic and therapeutic raw material medical isotopes like molybdenum-99 and lutetium-177.

The ENDF/B-V differential cross sections for neutron scattering from natural carbon below 2 MeV, recommended as standards for measurements and based on an R matrix analysis for 12C using natural carbon data, are revised to include 13C resonances for high-resolution applications. The recommended 13C cross sections are also based on an R matrix analysis of the available data. The 0.1529- and 1.736-MeV resonances rise above the natural carbon background by 7 and 1%, respectively. The angular distributions of the elastically scattered neutrons from 13C are generated by the R matrix theory. The final recommended cross sections and Legendre coefficients of angular distributions for natural carbon, adopted for ENDF/B-VI, are tabulated.
