¹⁸F is one of the most important positron emitters which are routinely used in the positron emission tomography (PET). The recoil nuclei method in the ¹⁹F(Ɣ,n)¹⁸F reaction was used for the production of ¹⁸F free carrier. The sufficiently high energy of recoil nuclei in this reaction can be up to 20...
