“…Equations (8) and (9) are the empirical formulas to predict X2 R2 s , in which both the mass dependence and the incident energy dependence of isotopic yield are included. The predictions of fragments using equations (8) and (9) are labeled 'this work'.…”

“…Although the Monte Carlo methods can provide predictions for positionemission nuclei, parameterizations of position-emission nuclei can reduce computation time. Besides proton therapy, it is also necessary to predict isotopic yield for isotope separation online (ISOL) of radioactive nuclear beam facilities, which provide rare isotopes [8], and for acceleratordriven subcritical (ADS) reactors, which aim at green nuclear energy and nuclear waste disposal [9].…”

“…The p + Pb/Bi spallation reactions have also been measured to obtain the excitation functions for residue fragments from 40 to 2600 MeV [35]. Moreover, the tasks of ISOL and ADS research also require high quality prediction of fragment yield for proton-induced reactions of heavy isotopes such as uranium, plutonium, etc [8,9]. For heavy isotopes, most of which are neutron-rich, more terms should be introduced to incorporate the effects induced by the large asymmetry of the system.…”

An empirical formula is proposed for predicting the cross sections of fragments in a spallation reaction. The cross sections of fragments measured in the 300, 500, 750, 1000 and 1500 MeV u−1 56Fe + p spallation reactions are analysed. The mass and incident energy dependence of the isotopic yield have been considered in the empirical formula. The cross sections of fragments predicted by the proposed empirical formula and the spallation residue cross section (spacs) parameterizations have been compared to the experimental results, showing that both of them can predict the results well. The cross sections of fragments in the 1000 MeV u−1 136Xe + p reactions can also be predicted by the proposed formula, while the spacs parameterizations significantly underestimate the measured results. The empirical formula is useful for predicting the yield of radioactive nuclei produced in proton therapy.
