Excitation functions of long lived products in deuteron induced nuclear reactions on platinum up to 40 MeV

A systematic study on the activation cross-sections for deuteron induced reactions on platinum was carried out. In the present work the energy range covered was extended up to 40 MeV [F. Tárkányi, S. Takács, F. Ditrói, A. Hermanne, Yu.N. Shubin, A.I. Dityuk, Nucl. Instr. and Meth.

Calculations of the excitation functions were performed by the ALICE-IPPE code and compared with the experimental results. The possible application of the experimental data is discussed.
