Abstract
Methods and systems for producing radionuclides by neutron activation are disclosed. A system for radionuclide production can include a compact plasma-based fusion neutron source, for example, a Z-pinch-based neutron source, configured to generate a neutron flux, and a target holder configured to hold a target comprising neutron-activatable nuclides, for example, 98Mo, where the target holder is arranged with respect to the compact plasma-based fusion neutron source to expose the target to the neutron flux and produce radionuclides, for example, 99Mo, through neutron activation of the neutron-activatable nuclides. In some embodiments, the target holder is configured to move the target along a circulation path arranged with respect to the plasma-based fusion neutron source during exposure of the target to the neutron flux.
