Dear Vasilis:

Thank you very much for your previous replies.
I would like to make sure what is the result I'm scoring if I do not
use target material in USRYIELD.
I can calculate the atom density and the target thickness.
But I am not sure I do the conversion right or not.

The number of stars (2.33 E 07) is close to the primaries (2 E 07).
I multiply the primaries ,divided by the stars , but the spectrum is
just a little changed by a constant 2/2.33 .
The spectrum I got still incorrect.

Very sorry for my late problem.

Best Regards

Lee
