Simulation of a quasi-infinite uranium target irradiated by 1 GeV proton and deuteron particles with the help of FLUKA simulation package was carried out. Neutron spectra and neutron flux in a target volume were obtained. 235U(n,f), 238U(n,f), 238U(n,g) reaction rates in a target were determined. Beam particle power multiplication were calculated.
