Effects of Deuteron and Alpha Optical Model Potentials on the Production Cross–Section Calculations of Some Radiobromine Isotopes

The extensive use of radioisotopes in diverse fields, particularly in medical studies for diagnosis and treatment, is one of the outcomes of evolving technology and improved scientific research. Among the various radioisotopes used for medical purposes, an example that can be highlighted considering their properties and utilization possibilities is radiobromine isotopes. It is obvious that both experimental and theoretical studies make significant contributions to the literature on medically relevant radioisotopes. The cross–section, which is the data connected with the occurrence of a reaction, is one of the theoretical metrics that may provide information to researchers. The framework of this study was constructed by taking into account the importance of radiobromine isotopes in medical applications as well as the effects of some parameters that might have an impact on their production cross–section calculations. In this context, the impact of five deuteron and eight alpha optical model potentials, which are available in the 1.95 version of the TALYS code, on the production cross–section calculations of 75-77Br radioisotopes through some (d,x) and (α,x) reactions have been studied. The obtained calculation results were compared visually and numerically with the experimental data available in the literature for each reaction, and the outputs were interpreted.
