  The measured fluxes of secondary particles produced by the interactions of
cosmic rays with the astronomical environment represent a powerful tool to
infer some properties of primary cosmic rays. In this work we investigate the
production of secondary particles in inelastic hadronic interactions between
several cosmic rays species of projectiles and different target nuclei of the
interstellar medium. The yields of secondary particles have been calculated
with the FLUKA simulation package, that provides with very good accuracy the
energy distributions of secondary products in a large energy range. An
application to the propagation and production of secondaries in the Galaxy is
presented.
