What longer-term byproducts? Slow neutrons don’t make any, AFAIK. Remember, max levels are about what you get from a classroom full of children.
By “longer-term” I assume products that take longer to decay to background levels than a length of a single shot. I am sure there are such products, that means they are accumulating during run and I wonder what is the function describing their accumulation.
Further to Eric’s comment, if low-energy neutrons caused accumulation, the classroom full of kids would do the same thing.
