摘　　要：The spallation of ^(238)U is an important way to produce rare isotopes.This work aims at studying the cross sections of isotopes produced in ^(238)U+p,d and^9 Be reactions at 1 A GeV and their target dependence.(1)A physical model dependent(Bayesian neural network)BNN,which includes the details of IQMD-GEMINI++model and BNN,was developed for a more accurate evaluation of production cross sections.The isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics(IQMD)model is used to study the non-equilibrium thermalization of the ^(238)U nuclei and fragmentation of the hot system.The subsequent decay of the pre-fragments is simulated by the GEMINI++model.The BNN algorithm is used to improve the prediction accuracy after learning the residual error between experimental data and calculations by the IQMD-GEMINI++model.It is shown that the IQMD-GEMINI++model can reproduce the available experimental data(3282 points)within 1.5 orders of magnitude.After being fine tuned by the BNN algorithm,the deviation between calculations and experimental data were reduced to within 0.4 order of magnitude.(2)Based on the predictions by the IQMD-GEMINI++-BNN framework,the target dependence of isotopic cross sections was studied.The cross sections to produce the rare isotopes by the ^(238)U+p,d and^9 Be reactions at 1 A GeV are compared.For the generation of neutron-rich fission products,the cross sections for the ^(238)U+^(9)Be are the largest.For the generation of neutron-deficient nuclei in the region of A=200–220,the cross sections for ^(238)U+p reaction are the largest.Considering the largest cross sections and the atomic density,the beryllium target is recommended to produce the neutron-rich fission products by the ^(238)U beam at 1 A GeV,while the liquid-hydrogen target is suggested to produce the neutron-deficient nuclei in the region of A=200–220.
