Abstract

The cosmic-ray propagation code GALPROP has been generalized to include fragmentation networks of arbitrary complexity. The code can now provide an alternative to leaky-box calculations for full isotopic abundance calculations and has the advantage of including the spatial dimension which is essential for radioactive nuclei. Preliminary predictions for sub-Fe/Fe, 10Be/9Be, 26Al/27Al, 36Cl/Cl, and 54Mn/Mn are presented in anticipation of new experimental isotopic data.
