For some istopes in special materials like polytene, graphite, water and so on, there are special S(α,β) data, how to select the data through S(α,β) parameter of Low-pwxs?
thank you for reporting. There is a bug in flair and it doesn’t automatically detect the S(a,b) materials from the database.
Until the flair fix which will be available quite soon, for the moment
Please look the folder
{FlukaDir}/data/neutron/JEFF-3.3/ThermalScattering/Inelastic/CrossSection
where {FlukaDir} is your fluka installation directory.
You should see a list of files each one corresponding for an isotope in a material
al_metal
be_beo
be_metal
benzen
d_heavy_water
d_ortho_d2
d_para_d2
fe_metal
graphite
h_l_ch4
h_ortho_h2
h_para_h2
h_polyethylene
h_s_ch4
h_water
h_zrh

zr_zrh
To enter the information in flair,
you can press Ctrl-E on the LOW-PWXS card and type-in the material you want in the WHAT(2) field
like the example above. I am selecting the h_water to be linked with the WATER material but only for the H-1, Z=1, A=1 isotope IAZ=10010
