Not yet, work is in progress in order to allow one to get this kind of
scoring. Hopefully with one of the next releases some new capabilities
will become available.

What is on the way is in fact the identification of recoil information in
nonionising events (for the ones induced by low energy neutrons a special
procedure is needed, due to the adopted multigroup treatment).
4) Can Residual Nuclei card help in finding pka?
At now it cannot.
Cheers
Francesco
