Аннотация:The possibility of production a medical radionuclide 177Lu by irradiating natHfO2 by bremsstrahlung photons up to 55 MeV was investigated. The yields of the main nuclear reactions were measured. A procedure for one-step separation of carrier free 177Lu via extraction chromatography on the LN resin sorbent (Triskem) was developed. The radiochemical yield was 98%, separation factor was higher than 105. Isomeric ratio 177mLu/177Lu was estimated. Simulation of 177Lu production in photonuclear reactions on 178Hf, 179Hf and natHf nuclei was performed. The possibility of production of medical quantities was discussed.
