Simulation of a ~21 t depleted uranium target irradiated by 1…10 GeV proton and deuteron particles with the help of FLUKA simulation package was carried out. Neutron spectra and neutron flux in a target volume were obtained. Total number of ²³⁵U (n,f), ²³⁸U(n,f) reactions occurred in a target were d...
