Abstract: Provided is a shunt resistor with an enhanced strength and reduced electrical resistance between a resistive element and terminals of the shunt resistor. This shunt resistor includes a first terminal and a second terminal each made of an electrically conductive metal material; and a resistive element disposed between the first terminal and the second terminal. The first terminal and the second terminal each have a through-hole, and the resistive element is embedded in the through-holes of the first terminal and the second terminal in a depth direction thereof. Regions connecting the resistive element to the first terminal and the second terminal each have an alloy portion formed along an inner peripheral surface of the through-hole.

Abstract: The present invention provides a target capable of reducing radioactivation of a member due to protons. The present invention uses a novel target configured by compositing a beryllium material or a lithium material and a carbon-series material for reducing the radioactivation of the member due to the protons.

Abstract: A method of separating and recovering 18F from 18O water at high purity and efficiency while maintaining the purity of the 18O water. By using a solid electrode (1) as an anode and a container (electrodeposition vessel) (2) made of platinum as a cathode, 18F in a solution (4) is electrodeposited on the solid electrode surface by applying a voltage. Then, by using the solid electrode (1) on which 18F is electrodeposited as a cathode and a container (recovery vessel) (5) holding pure water therein as an anode, 18F is recovered in the pure water by applying a voltage of opposite polarity to that of the electrodeposition. In this process, little 18O water is lost. The initial concentration of the 18O water is maintained even after the electrodeposition of 18F, so that the 18O water can be repeatedly used as an irradiation target for production of 18F.
