Description

Hello all, I am a nuclear engineering student trying to get started with modeling radioactive decay of an alpha emitter and a beta - emitter in order to model the ion pair distribution near to a source. I have no experience with this program so I was wondering if anyone had some helpful links or some example files I could run. It seems that the example rad decay fluka file that came with the version I downloaded does not seem to work either. Any help will be appreciated very much!

Please describe the issue. In case of reporting a bug, please provide step-by-step instructions for reproducing the error.
