Popis: The Neutron Activation Analysis Method was used to study neutron field in a setup consisting of a thick lead target and a natural uranium blanket. This setup was exposed to 1.5 GeV proton beam from the Nuclotron accelerator. By means of gamma-ray spectroscopic measurements we determined the yields of various nuclear reactions induced in the radio-chemical sensors. The data obtained were then compared with the results of a MCNPX simulation.
