Dear Fluka experts,

I'm doing simulations of Carbon beams of energies between ca. 70 and 450 MeV/u in water. I want to do the following:


  * I want to score energy spectra of all elements up until Z = 8.
  * I am interested in all isotopes of each chemical element, but I would like to group them by their atomic number, therefore I want to score the Energy/u spectra. (This is currently possible by multiplying the energy spectrum of each isotope by its mass and then summing the resulting spectra.)
  * I would like the energy spectra in small volumes as a function of the both the depth (z for a beam in the z direction) and the distance from the beam axis (r).

As I currently understand I would need to divide my target region into a lot of small subregions and then in each region score the energy spectrum of each isotope. This will lead to a very(!) large amount of USRTRACK scoring cards. Also, if I exceed limit on the number of usrtrack scoring cards I would have to do multiple simulations of the same system to extract all the information I want.

Do you think USRTRACK is a viable option to get what I need? If not, what would you recommend doing instead?

Kind regards,

Tom
