Re: [fluka-discuss]: Problem with using liquid argon as a material

Hi

You have to define argon as ARGON and not as LIQARGON.
Please see the the table "10.4.1.2} List of materials for which cross
sections are available in the 260 neutron, 42 gamma group library:" at
http://www.fluka.org/fluka.php?id=man_onl&sub=96
You can use the low-mat card to set a correspondence with the available
cross sections to the material defined by you, if it is not listed.. Please
see

Best
Sunil
