The fragments produced in nuclear reactions for accelarator driven systems (ADS)operation form elements that can have effects on the structure of the reactor. In thisregard, the calculation of fragment distributions gives important information for thedevelopment of ADS. To obtain those distributions, the Monte Carlo (MC) method isan important tool, and in this work we describe calculations of fragment distributionsthrough a MC code for reactions initiated by intermediate- and high-energy protonsand photons on actinide and preactinide nuclei. We study the production of fragmentsthrough spallation and fission reactions. The results show good qualitative agreementwith experimental data
