Development and testing of a new system for irradiation and subsequent processing of Lu-176 target. Material and Methods: A new type of an irradiation vessel consisting of external aluminum alloy cover and inner quartz tube for sample placement was designed and tested. The system is water-proof. The ampoule was designed as disposable and has been tested for He leak - achieved leakage level was in order of 2E-09 mbar.l/s and in a real irradiation conditions.Results: Experiments performed under the highest available neutron flux density have shown reproducible behaviour of the systems regarding leakage, target processing and activity recovery.Conclusion: The designed system demonstrated suitability for high-level activities production of reactor medical radionuclides, in particular of Lu-177.
