[fluka-discuss]: How can I obtain the dose rate (pSv/s)?

Dear Fluka experts,

I'm simulating a source of photons with a certain energy spectrum.
Each bin of energy has a certain probability. I'm scoring the dose
equivalent but I would like to obtain the dose rate, how can I obtain
that?

I attach the spectrum of the source:energy, flux (photons/s) and
probability of each bin.


If I obtain for example a dose of 0.0001 pSv (per incident particle),
how can I make the convertion to dose rate? Is it correct if I simply
multiply the dose (pSv/particle) x total flux (partciles/s)? We have
to take into account that some bins contibute more than others to
this dose.

Thank you very much.
Núria
