Abstract We present a new generation of model calculations for cosmogenic production rates in various types of solar system bodies. The model is based on the spectra for primary and secondary particles calculated using the INCL++6 code, which is the most reliable and most sophisticated code available for spallation reactions. Thanks to the recent improvements (extending the code to lower and higher energies and considering light charged particles as ejectiles and projectiles), we can for the first time directly consider primary and secondary Galactic α particles. We calculate production rates for ²²Na, ¹⁰Be, and ²⁶Al in an L-chondrite with a radius of 45 cm and in the Apollo 15 drill core, and we determine the long-term average Galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) spectrum (represented by the solar modulation potential Φ) in the meteoroid orbits at ∼3 au of Φ = 600 MV and at 1 au, i.e., for Earth and Moon of Φ = 660 MV. From this, we calculate a long-term average GCR gradient in the inner solar system of ∼5% au⁻¹. Finally, we discuss the possibility of studying temporal GCR variations and meteoroid orbits using production rate ratios of short- and long-lived radionuclides.
