Abstract
Current methods for calculating spallation reactions over various energy ranges are described and evaluated. Recent semiempirical fits to existing data will probably yield the most accurate predictions for these reactions in general. However, if the products in question have binding energies appreciably different from their isotopic neighbors and if the cross section is ∼ 30 mb or larger, then the intranuclear-cascade-evaporation approach is probably better suited.
This research was funded by the U. S. Energy Research and Development Administration under contract with the Union Carbide Corporation.
