This example was done for Bi-206.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
clear all;

load bics.m % loads cross-section file: first column is energy, second column is c-s in b
load flpb.m %loads photon flux file: first column is energy, second column is flux in photons/cm^2 per source electron
energy=bics(:, 1);
flux=flpb(:, 2);

%% Parameters (target parameters) (need to be entered every time program is compiled)

% Below enter target mass in grams;
M = 1;
% Below enter target average atomic mass in amu;
m = 208;
% Below enter natural abundance of an isotope of interest;
abundance = 0.55;
% Below enter a half-life of the isotope of interest in hours:
halflife = 6.24*24;
% %If you want to know activity after certain time of irradiation, then below enter irradiation time in hours:
T = 1;
% %If you want to see activity as a function of time, then below enter irradiation time in hours:
t = [0:0.1:100];
%% Activity calculation is conducted below (don't edit)

% Average number of electrons per second is calculated and stored in variable N (for 1 kW of
% beam power and 40 MeV electron beam):
N = (1 * 10^(-3)) / (40 * 1.6 * 10^(-19));

% Photon flux - cross section overlap integral I (in s^-1) is calculated and stored in variable I:

I=0;
for i=1:length(cs),
I=I+flux(i).*cs(i);

end
I = I*N * 10^(-27);
% Total number of the isotope of interest in the target is calculated and stored in variable Tot;
Tot = M * abundance / (m * 1.6605 * 10^(-24) );

% Production rate (in s^-1) is calculated and stored in variable R:
R = Tot * I;

% Activity obtained in uCi:
A0 = ( R * (1 - exp(-log(2)* T / halflife))) / (37000); %converted from Bq into microCi

sprintf('Activity obtained is %g uCi/(%g g kW %g hours)', A0, T)

A = ( R * (1 - exp(-log(2)* t / halflife))) / (37000); %converted from Bq into microCi
plot(t,A)
