Framatome, KHNP to investigate producing Lu-177 in South Korea
Framatome and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding to explore the possibility of producing the medical isotope Lutetium-177 at KHNP’s Wolsong nuclear power plant in South Korea. The companies also will investigate the feasibility of using the plant to support Korean production of medical radioisotopes in the future.

Using time-of-flight techniques, we have measured neutron emission spectra from 6- and 10-MeV incident neutron energies on 10B and 11B for laboratory angles between 20 and 145 deg using the unique neutron source reaction 1H(t,n). Double-differential cross sections and their integrated values have been extracted for elastic and inelastic processes, and their integrated values are summarized. In cases where discrete scattering peaks could be analyzed, differential cross-section angular distributions have been extracted and are compared to other results and to evaluated nuclear data.
