## Abstract Taking advantage of the ^14^N(p,pn)^13^N reaction occuring during the ^14^N(p,α)^11^C carbon dioxide production, pure [^13^N]N~2~ suitable for PET ventilation studies was produced in a standard nitrogen gas target for ^11^C‐production (“carbon‐11 target”), after elimination of ^11^CO~2~
New polymer-based materials have been evaluated in an effort to improve nitrogen-13 production with medical cyclotrons. A series of poly(styrene/divinylbenzene) derivatives have been synthesized and then pyrolysed to yield carbonized beads. Preliminary cyclotron studies indicate that pure ~3N-labell
