In order to observe energy transition between nuclear levels, the nucleus under investigation have been
excited to higher levels. One of the basic way to perform this task is the absorption of a gamma-ray
photon by nucleus. Then the accompanying ejection of protons, neutrons or light particles from the
nucleus is called photonuclear reaction. For the activation of the target nucleus, bremsstrahlung photons
might be used which are also generated from a medical linear accelerator. Due to particle separation
energy limitation, for low photon energy (~15 MeV), the reaction exit channels are limited to ejection
of 1-2 particles. Thus the gamma spectrum is relatively clear and the use of ancillary detectors to HPGe
is not highly needed. In this study the breemstrahlung photons have been used for the activation of
titanium target. The yields of reaction on stable Ti isotopes have been measured The results are
consistent with the literature values.
