Today several particle and heavy ion MC transport codes exist, e.g. PHITS, HETC-HEDS, SHIELD-HIT, GEANT4, FLUKA, and MCNPX. In this paper, we present an extensive bench marking of the calculated projectile fragmentation cross sections from the reactions of 200-1000 MeV/n He, C, N, O, Ne, Si,Ar, and Fe, which are relevant to space radioprotection, using PHITS, FLUKA, HETC-HEDS, and MCNPX_HI, against measurements performed by C. Zeitlin et al, at LBNL. The influence of the different models used in the different transport codes on the calculated results is discussed.
