Cosmic-ray muons produce various radioisotopes when passing through material.
These spallation products can be backgrounds for rare event searches such as in
solar neutrino, double-beta decay, and dark matter search experiments. The
KamLAND-Zen experiment searches for neutrinoless double-beta decay in 745kg of
xenon dissolved in liquid scintillator. The experiment includes dead-time-free
electronics with a high efficiency for detecting muon-induced neutrons. The
production yields of different radioisotopes are measured with a combination of
delayed coincidence techniques, newly developed muon reconstruction and xenon
spallation identification methods. The observed xenon spallation products are
consistent with results from the FLUKA and Geant4 simulation codes
