Abstract

The results of the experimental measurement and numerical simulation of the cross sections for residual radioactive nuclei production in thin 209Bi, natPb, 206Pb, 207Pb, and 208Pb targets bombarded with protons in the energy range from 0.04 to 2.6 GeV are reported. The nuclide production cross sections were measured using γ spectrometry with a high-resolution Ge detector. The experimental data include a total of 5972 reaction cross sections at 11 proton energy values. The results are compared to the data from other laboratories reported in 80 papers. The model calculations were carried out using eight simulation code packages: LAHET, INCL4 + ABLA, CEM03, LAQGSM + GEM2, CASCADE, CASCADE-2004, CASCADO, and LAHETO. A detailed analysis of discrepancies between the measured and calculated data is presented.
