Modelling proton-induced reactions at low energies in the MARS15 code

Abstract

An implementation of both the ALICE code and TENDL evaluated nuclear data library in order to describe nuclear reactions by low-energy projectiles in the Monte Carlo code MARS15 is presented. Comparisons between results of modelling and experimental data on reaction cross sections and secondary particle distributions are shown as well.
