Gold and isotopically enriched platinium targets for the production of radioactive beams of francium
Abstract
Au and isotopically enriched Pt targets are discussed for the production of radioactive Fr beams. Target foils, serving also as ionizers, have to be heated in order to enhance the diffusion of atoms to the surface for further extraction and injection into the electrostatic transport system.
