Mn-52 is a very important radioisotope in medical applications. The different routes for production of this isotope, via nuclear reactions using p,d, He-3 and a, as projectile were studied in this work. Evaluation of the existing excitation functions of the different reactions as well as present TALYS 1.4 and EMPIRE 3.1 code calculations are presented. Cr-52(p,n), Cr-52(d,2n) and V-51(alpha,n) nuclear reactions are taken into consideration. Recommended excitation functions and thick target yields for both ground and isomeric states are given.
