F18 production with proton bombardment from O18 with Geant4

01 January 1970 1 7K Report

Hello, I want to produce radioisotopes from different targets, specially for simulating a cyclotron operation. I tried STCyclotron example but it is valid only for few solid targets like Ni, Co. Is there any similar example which can be modified to get my desired outcome? If not, how can I achieve it? please suggest. Thanks in advance. Arnab
