Comparison of measured and calculated cross sections of isotopes produced by fragmentation of 208^Pb, 197^Au and 198^Pt on beryllium.

Caption

The comparison shows that both EPAX3 and COFRA calculations are in good agreement with experimental data; these models were therefore used to calculate production cross sections for new neutron‑rich nuclei in the rare‑earth region.
