Possible routes for the production of 82Sr

Reaction Target material Projectile energy (MeV) Comment
89Y (p, spallation) 82Sr Yttrium oxide 60-240 Low radiopurity & yield
NatMo (p, spallation) 82Sr Molybdenum metal 500-700 Low radiopurity, high cost
NatRb (p, xn) 82Sr RbCl or Rb metal 40-90 Preferred
NatKr (α, pxn) 82Sr Kr gas 20-120 Low radiopurity, low yield, little availability
NatKr (3He, xn) Kr gas 20-90 Low radiopurity, low yield, very little availability
