Scientific paper

A model for evaluating the variations with depth of high-energy particle fluxes propagating inside spherical solid bodies is proposed for use in calculating the production rates of spallogenic nuclides in meteorites. It is shown that the production by secondary particles is the major process determining the abundances of the produced nuclides. The angular distribution of these particles is of little incidence. The model is restricted to energies above 300 MeV. Results are presented from application of the model to the products of high-energy reactions induced in iron meteorites.
