Calculation of reactions cross section for proton-induced nuclear reactions on Iodine-127 isotope

Radioisotope production for nuclear medicine is tomography devices. Both single photon emissions computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) is used for diagnosis in nuclear medicine we have calculated the reaction cross section and investigated the excitation functions for the formation of 127,126 125I, 126,127,128Xe,126,125Te isotopes in the interactions of proton particle with the nucleus of the iodine-127 isotope. The analysis shows that there is a variation of interaction cross-section with a variation of energy of the incident particle. The result shows that the plots of the 127I(p,ng), and 127I(p,2ng), graphs have full excitation curve. The productions confirm the presence of Xenon-127 and Xenon-126 isotopes are possible at the energy range of 0 to 30 MeV from the iodine-127 nucleus.Keywords: Cross-Section; Excitation function; Nuclear Reaction; Radioisotope; Statistical Multistep Reactio
