METRICS project in collaboration with INFN

Study of nuclear reactions ⁵²Cr(p,n)52g/mMn, ⁵³Cr(p,2n)52g/mMn, ⁵⁴Cr(p,3n), 52g/mMn and of the main reaction channels that produce Mn contaminants.

study of the alternative nuclear reactions they can produce 52m/gMn, using both proton and deuteron beams.

Study of new carrier molecules (drugs) capable of maintaining the paramagnetic properties of Mn_{52 for future hybrid PET / MRI.}
