Knowledge of production cross sections for radionuclides and medium energies (10 MeV to 100 GeV) of the incident particles gains more and more importance, not only for nuclear physics, but also for applications in astrophysics, radiation protection, medicine, industry, etc. In the present subvolume production cross sections of radioisotopes by medium energetic alpha-particles are presented in tables and figures for targets from helium to rubidium. The origin of the authors made it possible to include data from Russia and other Eastern European countries which sometimes are not easy to access. The tables and figures should represent the most complete compilation for this type of nuclear reaction.
