Experimentally available cross section data for formation of the radionuclides Ga-68, Ga-67, Ga-66 and Cu-64 in proton induced reactions on enriched Zn-68, Zn-67 and Zn-66 were evaluated by comparison with the excitation functions calculated by the nuclear model codes, EMPIRE and TALYS, followed by statistical fitting of the selected data. The recommended cross sections were used to obtain the integral yields. The validation of the recommended excitation functions was also attempted by normalization to Zn-nat and comparison with the experimental data for the Zn-nat(p,x)Ga-67, Zn-nat(p,x)Ga-66 and Zn-nat(p,x)Cu-64 processes.
