Description
Hafnium isotopes are interesting candidates in experiments studying shell effects and nuclear reaction mech-anisms. The general availability and price of enriched isotopes determines if producing targets from the want-ed isotope is realistically feasible.
For future applications, we investigated the yields achievable when producing metallic hafnium targets with the methods available at the GSI target laboratory, such as electron-gun evaporation and DC magnetron sput-tering, on different backing materials.
