Plotting the spectrum as given in the image

Versions

FLUKA:4.5.1
Flair:4.4.0

Description

I need a plot similar to the above image. both 2nd protons and alpha particles. Input protons i am getting from EPOCH. Basically i need the spectrum of alpha particles and the protons and I also need to measure the angular distribution of the alpha particles (dn/dtheta*dE) (deg/MeV). Which scoring card i should use to get the respective spectrum and the angular distribution ?

A post was split to a new topic: How to normalize USRBDX plots

Dear Arun,

Thank you for your question.

The answer will depend on the what the angular distribution is relative to:

  • If you are looking for an angular distribution in solid angle (sr) with respect to the particles trajectory and the boundary they are crossing then one could use USRBDX

  • If you are looking for the angular distribution with respect to the beam orientation (or other as specified by user using SDUM), one can use USRYIELD

In each option taking care of units (polar angle, solid angle - particle number, yield, current or fluence) to normalise.

Please find in addition the slides on scoring from both the beginner and advanced FLUKA courses, which details both cases with examples.

Many thanks,

Katie
