The process of “Glucose ¹¹C” pharmaceutical production by means of a photonuclear reaction ¹²C(γ, n)¹¹C is considered. The parameters of bremsstrahlung and electron beam scattered in the converter are investigated and optimized. It is proposed to use a constant-field magnet to remove electrons from...
