Measurement of isomeric yield ratios of 99m,g;101m,g;102m,g Rh in the nat Pd(γ,pxn) reactions with the bremsstrahlung end-point energies of 50-70MeV.

The isomeric yield ratios of99m,g Rh,101m,gg Rh, and102m,g Rh isomeric pairs produced from thenat Pd(γ,pxn) reactions were measured with the bremsstrahlung end-point energies of 50-, 55-, 60-, 65-, and 70-MeV at the 100MeV electron linac of the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory, Korea. The measurements were carried out with the activation method in combination with off-line γ-ray spectrometry. In order to improve the accuracy of the activity measurements, the separation of the overlapping γ-rays and the necessary corrections for the counting losses were made. The new experimental results are compared with the theoretical values of the TALYS-1.6 code.
