Abstract: Experimental results on the production and separation of 149Tb from natural neodymium target using the nuclear process Nd(12C,xn)149Dy→149Tb are presented. Terbium-149 was produced at the U-200 cyclotron of FLNR JINR by irradiating natNd2O3 with 12C ions and its possible production for nuclear medicine utilising the heavy-ion induced reactions was investigated.
