Zirconium-93 is one of major long-lived fission products contained in high-level radioactive waste. This report introduces an experimental study of proton-and deuteron-induced spallation reactions on Zr at 105 MeV per nucleon in inverse kinematics carried out at RIKEN RI Beam Factory. The isotopic production cross sections for a wide range of isotopes including stable ones were obtained. The experimental results were compared to the PHITS calculations considering both the intra-nuclear cascade and evaporation processes.
