Dear Samuel,
Thank you for your response. However, I wish to request more clarifications on these;
“…The USRBIN card records energy deposition, and by definition, it does not account for events that do not deposit energy…” Doesn’t this contradict the response from Giuseppe on this same issue (see screenshot and link)
Secondly about the bin widths from the DETECT’s *tab.lis file: “…I choose this approach because I think that the first bin will always differ in energy width, depending on the E_max and so, setting E_min = 0…”
Maybe this wasn’t clear enough but what I meant here is that for a given constant number (e.g 1024) of the bins, Setting different values for E_max results to different bin widths (Even though they might all be equally spaced). So, if an even results in energy 0<E<UB1, where UB1 if the Upper bound of the first bin, and another event results in E = 0, then these will all be placed in the histogram of the first bin. So, setting E_min = 0 and later deleting the first bin downstream might result to a loss of theses events. Correct?
This is why I thought that a really small value (Maybe E_min ~ 1E-09 GeV) might conserve these non-zero energy events especially when dealing with thin targets. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
That seemed to work for me (see pictures)
With E_min = 0
Another Simulation where I set E_min >0
Sincerely,
Zavier
