Abstract: Nuclear reactions of high-energy protons with treatment equipment, air, and patient tissue during proton therapy generate residual radioactivity and secondary particles including protons, deuterons, alphas, and neutrons. The most up-to-date versions of INCL++ (v5.2.9), TALYS… read more here.

Abstract: Two methods used to subtract the effect of the decay of different nuclear reaction products on the cross-section measurement of the studied nuclear reaction were given. Taking the cross-section measurement of the $^{91}\mathrm{Zr}(n,p)^{91\mathrm{m}}\mathrm{Y}$ reaction as… read more here.
