    Dear Dr. Dutta,

    There is no way to calculate d2N/dz dE with the standard options.
    However, this can be achieved by adding a command USERWEIG and
    modifying the user routine fluscw. I suggest that you request as many USRYIELD
    detectors as the number of z intervals you want, scoring in each of
    them d2N/dE d(omega), with E first scoring variable (as many intervals
    as you wish) and omega second variable (1 interval covering the whole
    solid angle: 0 to 180 degrees). In fluscw, you can write a logic
    of this kind:
          ...................
          INCLUDE '(SCOHLP)'
    *
          LOGICAL LFIRST
          SAVE LFIRST, ZMIN, DELTAZ
          DATA LFIRST /.TRUE./

    * Initialization, to be done only at first call
          IF (LFIRST) THEN
             LFIRST = .FALSE.
    * It is always good to write a warning on standard output that a
    * user routine has been used
             WRITE(LUNOUT,*)
         & "**** Using routine fluscw to get differential yield in z ****"

             ZMIN = .... ! write here the limits of the z range
             ZMAX = .... ! where you want to do the scoring
             NINTRV = .... ! and the number of z intervals
             DELTAZ = (ZMAX - ZMIN)/DBLE(NINTRV)
          END IF

          FLUSCW = ONEONE
          LSCZER = .FALSE.
    * The following applies only to yield detectors (there could be others)
          IF(ISCRNG .EQ. 5) THEN
    * find the z interval number
             INTERV = INT((ZZ - ZMIN)/DELTAZ) + 1
    * don't score if detector number is different from interval number
             LSCZER = JSCRNG .NE. INTERV
    * multiply the score by 4pi to get integral result in omega
             IF (.NOT. LSCZER) FLUSCW = FOUFOU * PIPIPI
          END IF
          RETURN
          END

    Of course, this is only a possible suggestion (and there might be errors:
    I have not checked it). You may think of possible variations
