Hi,

the output of the DOSE-EQ usrbin associated to the AUXSCORE, as you defined it, is pSv/primary particle (proton in your input). So if you need your results in Sv/hour you have to multiply by the number of protons/hour and the right power of 10 to obtain milliSv, microSv or Sv from the picoSv. This will be prompt dose rate.
When you define an irradiation profile and you associate a DCYSCORE card to your USRBIN DOSE-EQ scoring, results will be in pSv/second. In order to get Sv/h the multiplication factor is 3,6e-9. This is the residual dose rate.
Hope this helps,

Regards,

Lucia
