Abstract
The results of experimental and computer simulation studies of the yie lds of residual product nuclei in Bi-209 thin targets irradiated by 13 0 MeV and 1.5 GeV protons are presented. The yields were measured by d irect high-precision gamma-spectrometry. The gamma-spectrometer resolu tion was 1.8 keV in the 1332 keV line. The gamma-spectra were processe d by the ASPRO code. The gamma-lines were identified, and the cross se ctions defined, by the SIGMA code using the GDISP radioactive database . The process was monitored by the Al-27(p,x)Na-24 reaction. Results a re presented for comparisons between the Bi-209(p,x) reaction yields o btained experimentally and simulated by the HETC, GNASH, LAHET, INUCL, CEM95, CASCADE, and ALICE codes.
