| Abstract: | ABSTRACTRAPUNCL, a study course on Radionuclide Production with Cyclotrons, was organized in September 2017 in Mannheim. The intention was to test the feasibility of an educational program which is mainly driven by the input of the participating students. All aspects of target construction and operation have been covered in detail. Also the relevant aspects of Radiation Protection have been discussed. The students used intensively IAEA databases and MC simulation programs to model target design and operations. Topics for improvement have been identified and will be realized in the next course. Sources of funding have to be found to be able to organize the summer school in a sustainable way. |
