Re: How to know about the energy of parent particles?

Dear Mr. Battistoni,
           Firstly thank you very much for your information. At the same
time, also thank Mary Chin
very much. Based the discussion what Alberto Fasso' wrote, I have
succeeded to obtain the information of parent particles.
the method is: I add the code in USDRAW as
        IF(ICODE .EQ. 102) THEN
             ISPUSR(1) = JTRACK
             ISPUSR(2) = 1

             SPAUSR(1) = ETRACK
             SPAUSR(2) = AM(JTRACK)
             SPAUSR(3) = ETRACK - AM(JTRACK)
        END IF.

Then I can count the muon with the parent information in BXDRAW by
               IF( JTRACK.EQ.10) THEN
            IF(MREG.EQ.3 .AND. NEWREG.EQ.4) THEN

               WRITE(60,'(2I7, 4E12.5)') ISPUSR(1),ISPUSR(2),Spausr(1),
& Spausr(2),Spausr(3),ETRACK - AM(JTRACK)
              end if
              end if

the input file and results in attachments, where the output file have
sort by the pion energy in the fifth column.
   I am confused for the output results:
We do find many stopping pion with kinetic energy of zero. but no low pions
with energies from zero to 0.0070103GeV even I have used the PART-THR
card to setting the pion and muon threshold as
PART-THR -1.0E-9 13.0 14.0 1.0 0.0
PART-THR -1.0E-6 10.0 11.0 1.0 0.0 .
I don't know why? the number of primary protons is 10^7 particles.

On the other hand, I want to know: If the pions with energy less to the
threshold of -1.0E-9 decay, these pions are considered
as stopping pions with kinetic energy of zero in FLUKA, is it? If not,
these pions are considered as energy deposition and no
decay happens? How do the FLUKA deal with these pions with energy less
to threshold?

With my best regards,
