Dear developers,

I would like to simulate the deuteron transport (1-50 MeV) through the beryllium target and, in particular, to investigate the (d,n) reactions. I found your conference paper [1], where the possibility of (d,n) and (d,p) reactions is discussed.

Is it already implemented in FLUKA? I did not manage to make it work. The only attempt of mine was to use the PHYSICS card with SDUM=IONSPLIT, but it apparently immediately converts all the deuterons into protons and neutrons. When I turned it off, deuterons were nicely stopped in the target, but without nuclear reactions, apparently.

Could you please have a look at it and let me know how to allow (d,t) and (d,p) reaction or whether is it possible.

Best regards,

Vojtěch Horný
