Comment on Control System Upgrade for The RDS-111 / Eclipse Cyclotron by rnickles https://wttc17.argarq.net/2018/04/30/control-system-upgrade-for-the-rds-111-eclipse-cyclotron/#comment-189 Thu, 21 Jun 2018 21:00:40 +0000 https://wttc17.organideia.pt/en/2018/04/30/control-system-upgrade-for-the-rds-111-eclipse-cyclotron/#comment-189 I strongly believe that this extension of a cyclotron’s lifespan is of great practical importance. And there is no other venue for its presentation. I would like to hear it as an oral presntation.

Comment on Isolation of cyclotron produced gallium by thermal diffusion and its use in preparation of Ga-PSMA11 by rnickles https://wttc17.argarq.net/2018/05/01/isolation-of-cyclotron-produced-gallium-by-thermal-diffusion-and-its-use-in-preparation-of-ga-psma11/#comment-186 Thu, 21 Jun 2018 20:50:53 +0000 https://wttc17.organideia.pt/en/2018/05/01/isolation-of-cyclotron-produced-gallium-by-thermal-diffusion-and-its-use-in-preparation-of-ga-psma11/#comment-186 Thermally assisted diffusion as a separation technique is still very exciting. This group has perfected it.

Comment on Production and characterization of titanium-45 by rnickles https://wttc17.argarq.net/2018/05/08/production-and-characterization-of-titanium-45-2/#comment-185 Thu, 21 Jun 2018 20:40:15 +0000 https://wttc17.organideia.pt/en/2018/05/08/production-and-characterization-of-titanium-45-2/#comment-185 Excellent abstract. Are some tricky chemistry problems of aqueous titanium chemistry going unsaid?

Comment on Production of Cu-61 in liquid targets by rnickles https://wttc17.argarq.net/2018/05/14/production-of-cu-61-in-liquid-targets/#comment-184 Thu, 21 Jun 2018 20:36:04 +0000 https://wttc17.organideia.pt/en/2018/05/14/production-of-cu-61-in-liquid-targets/#comment-184 Liquid targets of aqueous salt solutions often form corrosive conditions under high beam conditions, zinc chloride in particular. It would be interesting if deuteron irradiation of Ni-60 salt solutions would avoid some of this.

Comment on New ion source filament for prolonged ion source operation by rnickles https://wttc17.argarq.net/2018/05/15/new-ion-source-filament-for-prolonged-ion-source-operation/#comment-182 Thu, 21 Jun 2018 20:28:10 +0000 https://wttc17.organideia.pt/en/2018/05/15/new-ion-source-filament-for-prolonged-ion-source-operation/#comment-182 This is a practical subject, although it is peculiar that it takes a day to swap out a filament on an external ion source.
