[fluka-discuss]: Neutron contribution to Dose scored with ENERGY

Dear FLUKA Users,

I have received a question about a simulation I am running, with a high-energy proton beam as the primary source.
I am scoring ENERGY with a SCORE card because I need to assess Total Dose (converting GeV/cm3 to Grays for particular sensitive Regions).

As there will be some secondary neutron production, I would like to check that ENERGY will also include deposited energy from the neutrons, some of which will have been moderated by surrounding concrete structures.
I understand from the Help file that this is the case, but it would be helpful to have confirmation.

Many thanks.
