abstract = {Thick spherical targets made of gabbro (R = 25 cm) and of
steel (R = 10 cm) were irradiated isotropically with 1.6 GeV
protons at the Saturne synchrotron at Laboratoire National
Saturne (LNS)/CEN Saclay in order to simulate the
interaction in space of galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) protons
with stony and iron meteoroids. Proton fluences of 1.32 x
10(14) cm(-2) and 2.45 x 10(14) cm(-2) were received by the
gabbro and iron sphere, respectively, which corresponds to
cosmic-ray exposure ages of about 1.6 and 3.0 Ma. Both
artificial meteoroids contained large numbers of high-purity
target foils of up to 28 elements at different depths. In
these individual target foils, elementary production rates
of radionuclides and rare gas isotopes were measured by x-
and gamma-spectrometry, by low-level counting, accelerator
mass spectrometry (AMS), and by conventional rare gas mass
spectrometry. Also samples of the gabbro itself were
analyzed. Up to now, for each of the experiments, similar to
500 target-product combinations were investigated of which
the results for radionuclides are presented here. The
experimental production rates show a wide range of depth
profiles reflecting the differences between low-, medium-,
and high-energy products. The influence of the stony and
iron matrices on the production of secondary particles and
on particle transport, in general, and consequently on the
production rates is clearly exhibited by the phenomenology
of the production rates as well as by a detailed theoretical
analysis. Theoretical production rates were calculated in an
a priori way by folding depth-dependent spectra of primary
and secondary protons and secondary neutrons calculated by
Monte Carlo techniques with the excitation functions of the
underlying nuclear reactions. Discrepancies of up to a
factor of 2 between the experimental and a priori calculated
depth profiles are attributed to the poor quality of the
mostly theoretical neutron excitation functions. Improved
neutron excitation functions were obtained by least-squares
deconvolution techniques from experimental thick-target
production rates of up to five thick-target experiments in
which isotropic irradiations were performed. A posteriori
calculations using the adjusted neutron cross sections
describe the measured depth profiles of all these simulation
experiments within $9\%.$ The thus validated model
calculations provide a basis for reliable physical model
calculations of the production rates of cosmogenic nuclides
in stony and iron meteorites as well as in lunar samples and
terrestrial materials.},
