 Dear Joachim,

Thank You for help! In both cases in the output I filtered all particles by
electrons (I hope I have done it correctly). For the simulation without
RADDECAY card I used main energy line of radium 226. For simulation with
RADDECAY card I used radioisotope of radium 226. I attached both of my
input files.

Best regards,
Agnieszka
