(\(\alpha,n\)) и (\(\alpha,n\gamma\)) reactions induced by the alpha decays of uranium, thorium, and their daughter nuclides generate the intrinsic neutron and gamma backgrounds in modern ultralow background neutrino and dark matter detectors. In order to minimize the background, it is essential to select materials on the basis of a detailed analysis of relative concentrations of radionuclides and calculations of neutron and gamma-radiation yields. The NeuCBOT (Neutron Calculator Based On TALYS) program makes it possible to perform such calculations. The present article gives a review of a new version of the NeuCBOT program and a comparison of the results of calculations with different software tools.
