Angular distribution of USRYIELD

Dear Li,
in the Norm field you should enter the area, FLUKA will divide the result by that number. You can check that on top of the *_sum.lis file.

Mind that the output is a yield per solid angle (which is defined using the polar angles) so the bin width is not constant. From the *_tab.lis file you can use the first and second column which are the polar angles defining respectively the lower and upper values of the solid angles (with the relation 2π(1-cosθ)). The width of the solid angle bin will be2π(cosθ1 - cosθ2). If you are not convinced you can also calculate the cumulative yield and then check that what you get is consistent with what is written in the *_sum.lis file.

Best,
Davide
