Benchmarking ten codes against the recent GSI measurements of the nuclide yields from [sup 208]Pb, [sup 197]Au, and [sup 238]U + p reactions at 1 GeV/nucleon
A qualitative and quantitative comparison of the recent GSI measurements of the nuclide yields from {sup 208}Pb and {sup 238}U at 1 GeV/nucleon and {sup 198}Au at 800 MeV/nucleon interactions with protons with the codes LAHET (with both ISABEL and Bertini options), CEM95, CEM97, CEM2k, CASCADE, CASCADE/INPE, YIELDX, HETC, and INUCL is presented. The predictive power of these codes is reasonable for nuclides in the near spallation region but is worse for deep spallation and much worse in the fission region. None of these codes agree well with the data in the whole mass region of product nuclides and all must be improved to become reliable tools for accelerator-driven applications
