As part of our systematic comparison of (p,n) and (d,2n) reactions, the excitation functions of the (167)Er(d,2n)(167)Tm production reaction and reactions leading to Tm radio-impurities were investigated up to 20 MeV. A stacked foil irradiation technique and γ-ray spectroscopy is used. The measured excitation functions are compared with results of ALICE-D, EMPIRE-D and TALYS reaction model codes and with data from our earlier investigations on natural Er. Thick target yields and contamination levels are discussed. A comparison with other charged particle production routes for (167)Tm shows that deuteron induced reactions are not competitive.
作为我们对(p,n)和(d,2n)反应进行系统比较的一部分，研究了(167)Er(d,2n)(167)Tm生成反应以及导致Tm放射性杂质的反应的激发函数，能量高达20 MeV。采用了叠层箔辐照技术和γ射线光谱学。将测量的激发函数与ALICE-D、EMPIRE-D和TALYS反应模型代码的结果以及我们早期对天然Er的研究数据进行了比较。讨论了厚靶产额和污染水平。与(167)Tm的其他带电粒子产生途径的比较表明，氘核诱导反应没有竞争力。
